In the wake of rising COVID-19 cases in Delhi and fear of the second wave in Mumbai, Maharashtra Government is planning to ban flight and train services between Delhi and Mumbai.
A formal announcement about the same is likely soon.
Meanwhile, amid a surge in coronavirus cases in the national capital, a door-to-door survey for identifying and testing people symptomatic for COVID-19 in containment and densely packed areas of the city commenced on Friday.
The survey will be completed within five days and will cover over 57 lakh people in containment zones, dense areas and identified clusters of virus transmission, officials said.
Around 9500 surveillance teams have been constituted and deployed for conducting a door-to-door survey. Each team has a target to survey 50 households every day, officials added.
