The fresh cases were reported a day after the administration lifted containment restrictions in the district after two of three persons, who had tested positive for the virus earlier, were cured of the disease.

The district had reported its first COVID-19 case on March 31 when a 29-year-old youth, who worked in Dubai, tested positive for the virus. Two more persons with Tablighi Jamaat link were found to have contracted the infection on April 3.
