Unlock 1.0
In the previous phase of the lockdown, restrictions had been eased on the travel of individuals from different states. It has further been relaxed in the latest set of guidelines announced by the government.
However, parallelly, the number of cases has been increasing, and the reason for this is being pointed to the returnees from different states and countries. Although Bengaluru is far less affected than the other districts in the state, care needs to be taken by the officials to curb the outbreak in the capital.
