Uddhav Thackeray may announce lockdown due to increasing COVID cases
By MYBRANDBOOK
Amid the coronavirus cropping its head again in a few states of Maharashtra, Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray announced that in view of the rising COVID-19 cases, all political, religious and social gatherings will be prohibited in the state from Monday. In his televised address, he also said that political agitations will not be allowed for the next few days as they attract crowds.
“The pandemic is raising its head in the state, but whether it is another wave will be known in eight to 15 days,” he said. “Lockdown may not be the solution to COVID-19, but it is the only option to break the cycle of the virus,” he added.
The CM said that COVID-appropriate behaviour is a must and those violating the rules will be punished. According to him, face mask is the only “shield” in the war against coronavirus. “Wear mask, maintain discipline and observe social distancing to avoid a lockdown,” Thackeray concluded.
