Maharashtra CM Uddhav Thackeray
Maharashtra Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray on Sunday indicated that the ongoing lockdown restrictions will go beyond June 30, though the Unlockdown process is being gradually implemented to put the economy back on track. "Don't think that the lockdown restrictions will cease after June 30...The threat of Covid-19 still looms over the state and all precautions need to be taken," Thackeray asserted, addressing the state this afternoon.
Besides Covid-19, he said people must protect themselves from other monsoon diseases like malaria and dengue. The CM again appealed to all doctors and private hospitals to start their services in view of the ongoing pandemic.
