As lockdown curbs were eased under the state government’s “Mission Begin Again”, the authorities expect a surge in cases, especially in parts of the Mumbai Metropolitan Region, Pune, and Aurangabad.
The government has allowed private offices within the Mumbai Metropolitan Region (MMR) to work with 10% of their workforce or 10 employees, whichever is higher.
This relaxation, alongside the resumption of bus services by Brihanmumbai Electric Supply and Transport (BEST), led to more traffic snarls on the roads.
Last week, the government allowed physical activities like jogging and permitted non-essential shops to work on alternate days in red zones, excluding containment areas.
“We are closely monitoring things as we expect a surge in the Mumbai Metropolitan Region and districts like Pune and Aurangabad after the relaxations of curbs in three phases over the previous week,” said a senior official was quoted as saying.
Officials, however, said there was no surge in cases even after the lockdown was relaxed.
“There was an increase in cases in districts like Nashik and Aurangabad after the lockdown was lifted within the third week of May, but it had been not a surge. the increase is proportional and therefore the doubling rate of cases in these areas is improving. There was no exponential growth in cases,” another official said on the condition of anonymity.
