Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray, while addressing an all-party leaders meeting through video conference on Thursday, indicated that the lockdown could be extended to the end of May in the state's Corona Red Zone. Especially in the metropolitan areas of Mumbai and Pune, which account for 90% of the corona cases in Maharashtra. The extended lockdown is currently scheduled to end on May 17.

He was the only leader in the meeting who did not wear a mask. Raj said that the state should declare the exit plan 10-15 days in advance so that people are aware of what is allowed and when. This will protect against confusion and the crowd should be controlled during Eid....
