On Monday, Cabinet Secretary Rajiv Gauba said, ‘I am surprised to read such reports. There are no plans to extend the lockdown. ‘ Let us know that the lockdown was announced by the Prime Minister on 24 March, which ends on 14 April.
The government has asked all states and union territories to implement the lockdown strictly in view of the huge migration of migrant laborers. The government has implemented a number of regulations by local authorities to enforce lockdowns and not to allow migrant laborers to face any hardship during the lockdown period.
The government has constituted 11 strong groups for the planning and implementation of Kovid-19 response activities. These 11 teams will comprise 80 senior civil servants. Last week, Gauba asked the chief secretaries of the state and the administrators of the union territories to find out who had come in contact with more than 1.5 million international travelers from India since January 18.
