Delhi chief minister Arvind Kejriwal on Saturday extended the lockdown by another week as Covid-19 cases continued to rise exponentially in the national capital.
This is the second time the lockdown in Delhi has been extended.
Initially, the Delhi government had imposed a week-long lockdown to curb the spread of Covid-19 in the national capital on April 19. It was extended by a week on April 25.
"Coronavirus still continues to wreak havoc in the city. Public opinion is that lockdown should increase. So the lockdown is being extended for one week," Mr Kejriwal said last Sunday.
