After speaking to you day before yesterday, I spoke to the doctors and staff of Naidu Hospital, Pune. “What can I say?” the sights of them wearing a PPE kit and masks reminded me of Soldiers at war.
We are close to the final lap of this fight. We had to seal some places like in Mumbai, we have to do it to prevent community transmission. We are also doing contact tracing of corona positive patients and taking precautions to prevent transmission
I want to make a request again, there are some travelers and tourists who may have flown from countries whose names were not on the Centre's watch list when screening was launched at the Airport. Please come forward if you were not tested. Do not create a risk to others.
No need to be scared if you have cough and cold. Check allergy levels if you have allergies.
Do not use AC if you feel hot, keep the windows open. Use AC sparingly.

There are some medical practitioners who have shut their facilities. I request you to please keep the it open with necessary precautions.
Workers are leaving in hordes. Do not migrate, stay where you are. We have given instructions to all districts and launched 1,000 centres to provide meals to take care of them and provide meals to around 2-2.25 lakh workers regardless of whether they have cards or not.
I will implore them, do not leave for your States as the country is under lockdown. Districts and state borders have been shut. We are in touch with other States for people from Maharashtra stuck there and vice versa. Humanity is the guiding principle here.
I would like to thank medical shop owners and employees of the State Transport and BEST as they are working while we are at Home.
Discipline is being imbibed gradually. Do not throng markets, maintain social distance . At some places, squares are etched for people to stand. dont breach discipline as it will prove costly.
Shiv Bhojan is being provided at ₹5 around 25,000 plates are being provided and I have sanctioned a capacity of 1 lakh. we can go beyond it if necessary. But don't crowd Shiv Bhojan centers keep distance.
The number of cases will rise as the testing capacity rises. The number of patients is rising, but patients are also being cured if treated in time. So, do not run away from the situation or ignore the symptoms.
There were some rumours about the Maharashtra Government cutting salaries. I want to clarify that we will not cut anyone's salaries, we will be paying it phase wise.
