Gandhinagar: Gujarat has 9 districts as red zone, 19 districts as orange zone and 5 as green zone as per a list released by the department of health, Government of India.

The districts are classified based on incidence of cases, doubling rate, extent of testing and surveillance feedback. If there’s no confirmed cases so far or there is no reported case since last 21 days in the district it will be considered under green zone.
