My request to all countrymen is that we need to contain coronavirus under all circumstances and not allow it to spread. Even one new patient at the local level is a matter of concern. And if any patient dies of #coronavirus, it is a matter of grave concern: PM @narendramodi

We need to keep to a strict vigil on areas that can potentially become hotspots. Emergence of new hotspots are a challenge to our determination and resolve. This is why, over the next week the battle against coronavirus will be intensified and made stricter: PM @narendramodi

From 20th of April, situation in every police station, every district, every state will be evaluated to see how effectively the lockdown is being implemented. It will be seen, how well the area has managed to prevent the spread: PM @narendramodi

The area that pass this test by fire and are not hotspots, and are not likely to become hotspots will be given some relaxation from 20th of April for essential services. But remember, this relaxation comes with certain terms and conditions: PM @narendramodi

#IndiaFightsCorona

If the conditions of lockdown are violated, relaxations will be withdrawn with immediate effect. Therefore, try not be careless and prevent others from making any such mistakes. Tomorrow the government will issue detailed guidelines on this: PM @narendramodi

Keeping in mind the livelihoods of our poor brothers and sisters, provision of limited relaxations in identified places from 20th April has been made. Daily wagers and those who depend on daily earning are also part of my family: PM @narendramodi
