Bengaluru: The state government is extending the night curfew in Bengaluru by two hours and imposing it throughout the state. Apart from that, the Karnataka government is considering other measures, such as a 10-day closure of movie theatres, bars and pubs, gyms, and colleges, to help control the pandemic in the state.
Karnataka Governor Vajubhai Vala is holding an all-party meet to review the Covid situation in the state and a decision on imposing further restrictions in the state is expected in the meeting. Karnataka Chief Minister BS Yediyurappa participated in the virtual meeting.
However, there are indications that there may not be a complete lockdown with opposition to it from within the government and also from the opposition parties.
