New Delhi: Stricter guidelines are in store for 13 cities, which account for about 70% of the coronavirus disease (Covid-19) cases, as the country exits Lockdown 4.0 on Sunday.

Indications to this effect came during two meetings held on Thursday, one chaired by Union Cabinet Secretary Rajiv Gauba and the second by Union Home Minister Amit Shah, reported the news agency PTI.
