Ahead of his meeting with chief ministers next week, Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Saturday reviewed the steps being taken to contain the Covid-19 pandemic in areas with high case load and the road map for effective management of the situation. In view of the challenges being faced in the country's response to the pandemic, particularly by large cities with large number of infections, the meet focussed on augmenting testing as well as the number of beds and services to effectively handle the peak surge of daily cases, according to a statement issued by the Prime Minister's Office. In a tweet later, the Prime Minister said he reviewed the Covid-19 situation across the nation during the high-level meeting. "We also reviewed the roadmap ahead, and steps to contain the pandemic in the parts where most cases are coming from," he said.
