Chief minister M.K. Stalin at his office in the secretariat in Chennai, May 7; (ANI)
Tamil Nadu chief minister M.K. Stalin is a man in a hurry. After assuming office, on May 7 he assessed the precarious Covid-19 situation in the state and opted for a bold but unpopular decision. Putting lives over livelihoods, he imposed a fortnight-long lockdown from May 10 in an attempt to break the chain in the spread of the virus.
At the first cabinet meeting on May 9, he underlined the seriousness of the situation to his colleagues in the cabinet before despatching 22 of them to 14 high prevalence districts. They will be stationed there during the lockdown to oversee all Covid-related initiatives. Continuity and change, a mix of the old and the new has been the standout feature of Stalin’s choices for his cabinet. So old warhorses like S. Durarimurugan (irrigation), K.N. Nehru (municipal administration) and I. Periyasamy (cooperatives), now in their seventies

Measures should be taken to ensure that oxygen was not wasted, he said.

Hyderabad, May 11 : The Telangana government on Tuesday decided to invite global tenders to procure Covid-19 vaccine on a war-footing.
The decision was taken at the cabinet meeting presided over by Chief Minister K. Chandrasekhar Rao.

The government has already announced that the entire population of the state will be vaccinated free of cost.
