New Delhi: In the last 24 hours, India has seen the highest single-day spike in COVID-19 cases – 7,466. With over 4,706 deaths, speculations are ripe over lockdown extension after May 31.
Home Minister Amit Shah reportedly had telephonic conversations with chief ministers and later presented their opinions to the Prime Minister.
Goa Chief Minister Pramod Sawant told news agency ANI that he wanted the lockdown to be extended by 15 more days but with relaxations like reopening restaurants and gyms at 50 per cent capacity.
Most experts believe that if government decides to go for Lockdown 5.0, places like cinema halls and educational institutions will remain closed. Air travel, on the other hand, will become more relaxed with reopening of international routes on the horizon. As many as 100 pairs of express trains will run from June 1, with AC services to open in the next phase.
Intra-state buses and metro services are likely to resume at many places.
