No plan to impose lockdown again in Gujarat: Rupani

Gandhinagar: Gujarat Chief Minister Vijay Rupani on Monday once again said his government does not plan to impose lockdown again in the state.

Dismissing speculations being made on social media platforms about the lockdown, the chief minister urged people not to get carried away by such “unfounded rumours”.

“Following the unlock from June 1, daily life is gradually becoming normal. Business and trade-related activities have also picked up in the state. In such a scenario, the state government does not have any plans to impose the lockdown again,” Rupani said in a statement.

He said while the battle against COVID-19 pandemic is on, people are also learning to live with it.

Rupani’s statement came after rumours on the social media that his government may impose restrictions again as COVID-19 cases are not decreasing in the state.
