On the last day of lockdown 4.0, India registered its highest single-day spike of Covid-19 cases with 8,380 new infections reported in the last 24 hours, taking the country’s tally to 1,82,143, while the death toll rose to 5,164, according to the Union Health Ministry’s Sunday morning tally.
India has now become the world’s seventh worst-hit country in terms of coronavirus cases with its tally of 1,82,143, according to the World Health Organization’s (WHO) Covid-19 tracker.
The number of active Covid-19 cases stood to 89,995, while 86,983 people have recovered and one patient has migrated.
Several states released guidelines for the fifth phase of lockdown, or ‘Unlock 1.0’, starting Monday, June 1.
After the Centre allowed lifting of restrictions on inter-state movement of people, states like Maharashtra and Tamil Nadu, which have reported the highest number of coronavirus cases, and those in the Northeast on Sunday decided to continue with the curbs after the end of the fourth phase of the lockdown.
Others like Rajasthan and Telangana announced they are allowing inter-state movement as part of easing of restrictions under the Unlock 1.0, after such travel was banned for over two months due to the coronavirus lockdown.
The UP government said there is no ban on interstate travel but left it to the district administrations of Ghaziabad and Noida to take a call on the movement of people from adjoining Delhi.
