MUMBAI: CM Uddhav Thackeray on Sunday warned that the state would impose a strict lockdown if people did not follow Covid-appropriate norms for the next eight days. He also announced a complete ban for a few days on all political, social and religious gatherings, processions, morchas and public protests to check the spread of the disease.
In a 30-minute talk on social media, the CM told the people that it was in their hands to prevent another lockdown: “Now, my question to you is, should we impose a lockdown? Those who do not want a lockdown will observe protocols like using masks, washing hands and keeping physical distance. People who want a lockdown again will flout these rules. Let us see who wants a lockdown, and who doesn’t. I am very clear about this. Observe discipline, prevent a lockdown.”
