Maharashtra To Impose Night Curfew From March 28; Here Are The New Guidelines

Maharashtra Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray has decided to impose a night curfew across the state from March 28. The decision is taken by the State government in view of rising Covid-19 cases. Maharashtra’s Chief Minister Office added that a separate order will be issued by the Disaster management and rehabilitation department.

The Chief Minister has asked to implement some strict measures to curb the growing infection and implement it effectively.

Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray said, “I have no intention of imposing a lockdown, but given the growing number of patients, there is a possibility that the health facilities that we have set up on a large scale across the state will also be reduced.”

The CM also asked the district authorities to focus on the availability of health facilities, beds and medicines and the need to increase them. He also instructed the district collector to apply lockdown if there is a need in the district. But not to impose it suddenly.
