The lockdown-like restrictions have been extended till June 15, but municipal areas of Mumbai, Thane, Navi Mumbai, Kalyan and Vasai-Virar will be given certain relaxations like extension in shop timings based of their Covid-19 mitigation performance.

The parameters for getting relaxations are  — positivity rate equal to or less than 10 per cent and availability of 60 per cent oxygen beds. Since Mumbai fits the bill, it is all set to have restrictions eased. The government has created separate administrative units for implementing the revised measures.
