New Delhi: The Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA) on Wednesday issued revised guidelines on the measures to be taken by ministries, government departments, state and Union Territory governments for the containment and prevention of the viral disease in the country during the lockdown 2.0 till May 3.
“Until April 20, every town, every police station, every district, every state will be evaluated on how much the lockdown is being followed. The extent to which the region has protected itself from coronavirus will be noted,” Prime Minister Narendra Modi had said in his address to the nation on Tuesday morning. “Areas that will succeed in this litmus test, which will not be in the hotspot category, and will have less likelihood to turn into a hotspot, may be allowed to open up select necessary activities from April 20.”
Here are the selected permitted activities which will be allowed from April 20:
All health services (including AYUSH) will remain functional
Relaxation to industries
Financial Market & Insurance
The Reserve Bank of India, banks, ATMs, capital and debt markets as notified by SEBI will remain functional with a view to provide enough liquidity and credit support to the industrial sectors. The Insurance Regulatory Development Authority of India and insurance companies are allowed to operate during the lockdown period.
