Karnataka Chief Minister BS Yediyurappa on Tuesday announced that there will be no further lockdown in capital Bengaluru or any other part of the state. Addressing the people of the state via social media channels, Yediyurappa said restrictions will now continue only in COVID-19 containment zones.
“There’ll be no lockdown from tomorrow. Lockdown is not the solution, now restrictions will be placed only in containment zones,” the Karnataka CM stated.
Yediyurappa stressed that it was important to keep the economic cycle moving.
“People need to get back to work, the economy is also very important. We have to fight COVID-19 while maintaining a stable economy,” he said.
The ongoing round of lockdown in state capital Bengaluru ends at 5 am tomorrow.
The CM further blamed an influx of people from Maharashtra and Tamil Nadu for a spike in coronavirus cases in the state.
