He also instructed them to focus on the containment areas and take precautionary measures so that the infection does not spread from there.
“The CM has suggested that some districts should implement the Goa pattern and begin house-to-house surveys to verify not only Covid-19 symptoms but also monsoon-related illnesses to stop the diseases,” said an official, noting Goa. it is about the size of a Maharashtra district.
In reviewing the Green, Orange and Red Zones situation, Thackeray said that even if the blockade is relaxed in the immediate future, the district’s boundaries will not be opened, considering the massive movement of migrant workers. The CM asked all district fundraisers and division commissioners to review whether the exodus of migrants has caused a labor shortage and fill it with local people.
