While the Centre's fresh guidelines give a breather to non-containment zones in the country, red zones like Mumbai would have to wait for a little longer till the state government eases restrictions.
The aim of Unlock 1 is to resume more economic activities. However, the states have been asked to follow existing guidelines to tackle COVID-19 till more instructions follow.
Similar to the previous four lockdowns, the Maharashtra government will ask local authorities such as the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) to demarcate containment zones by considering guidelines issued by the Union Health Ministry and assessment of local health crisis.
