Will There Be Lockdown In Hyderabad From June 15

Rumours of lockdown in Hyderabad from June 15 have been afloat since these days. However, state chief secretary Somesh Kumar has put an end to these discussions after denying any such move of the government to impose the lockdown.

Talasani Srinivas Yadav, in an interview to a television channel, said the Chief Minister would decide on it in two or three days about what to be done next. It was misunderstood and following it, news of lockdown from 15 started doing the rounds.

However, the minister clarified that he meant that the government would take some precautionary measures in the future and it was nothing about imposing lockdown.

“I had admitted to the number of cases on the rise and said that the CM will take a decision in two to three days on further measures to be taken,” Srinivas told the media.

Meanwhile, the high court has lifted the lockdown for district courts and said that they would start functioning from June 15. However, the district courts within Hyderabad and Ranga Reddy districts will continue to be in lockdown till June 28.
