While the State government is expected to take a call on extending the lockdown in the next couple of days, Home Minister Basavaraj Bommai on Thursday indicated that the police would go for stricter enforcement of rules, including seizure of vehicles of motorists moving about unnecessarily.
However, in Bengaluru vehicle seizures would be undertaken by the law and order police. The Bengaluru Traffic Police on Thursday suspended physical checks on vehicles to reduce the risk of personnel contracting COVID-19.
The government had initially announced restrictions from April 27 till May 12, but later imposed a complete lockdown from May 10 to 24, following an increase in COVID-19 cases. Chief Minister B.S. Yediyurappa has said a decision on extending the lockdown would be taken on May 23.
