At the same time, more than 300 cases have been reported here in the last week. Subsequently, the administration decided on a Janata curfew.

Director of Delhi AIIMS, Dr. Randeep Guleria has said that there is no need to panic with Corona's new strain. Our vaccines are 70%, 80%, 90% effective. Even if there is a slight decrease in their effect, they will still work. This will reduce serious illness and deaths from it.

Because of the increasing cases of corona in the country, the Delhi government has been alerted. Now people coming to Delhi from Madhya Pradesh, Chhattisgarh, Maharashtra, Kerala, and Punjab will get entry in Delhi only after showing negative RT-PCR. The rule will remain in force from 27 February to 15 March.
