New Delhi, 4 May 2020 Monday

Corona virus continues to plague the country, with 2,553 new cases of corona reported in the last 24 hours, according to the health ministry.

At the same time, the number of positive cases has risen to 42,533, 1,074 patients have recovered in the last 24 hours, and the number of patients recovering has risen to 11,706, or 27.5 per cent, although the picture from the first day of lockdown 3.0 is worrying.

Love Agarwal, joint secretary in the health ministry, said the release from today in the third phase of the lockdown was a matter of grave concern. He told people to follow social distance and stay away from crowded places.

Drivers and transporters can lodge their lockdown related complaints using Control Room No. 1930 and Highway Authority of India No. 1033 in the Group Ministry to ensure that the Union Home Ministry does not face any problem in the movement of inter-state cargo.
