Maharashtra will start phase-wise unlock process on Monday. The state government has announced a detailed five-level plan to initiate the unlock process in the state as the Covid-19 situation improves. According to BMC commissioner Iqbal Singh Chahal, Mumbai will be categorised under Level 3 when the new rules are imposed on Monday.

Level 3 areas are those where the positivity rate is between 5% and 10% or more than 40% of beds with oxygen are occupied. The latest figures have marked the positivity rate in Mumbai at 5.3%.
