Restrictions due to the coronavirus in the Indian capital, New Delhi, have been eased as “the situation is under control,” officials announced today.
The New Delhi government decided to lift the weekend curfew and allow private offices, restaurants and movie theaters to operate at 50 percent capacity, taking effect immediately.
However, schools and colleges will still remain closed.
The move came after a meeting of the Delhi Disaster Management Authority, which met to assess the current coronavirus situation in the city.
“The COVID-19 situation is under control and the rate of being positive is likely to fall below 10 percent,” said Delhi Health Minister Satyendar Jain.
Meanwhile, India’s Foreign Minister Subrahmanyam Jaishankar said on Twitter that he tested positive for COVID-19. He has asked all those who have come in contact with him to take precautions.
India registered nearly 286,400 new cases of coronavirus and 573 deaths over the past day, according to official data released by the Ministry of Health.
