Speaking at a review meeting on COVID-19 scenario in Dharwad district and lockdown implementation, at the Hubballi Circuit House on Monday, Mr. Shettar said that a coordinated effort involving all Deputy Commissioners of the districts is being done to ensure systematic and timely supply of oxygen for COVID-19 treatment. Emphasising on the need for strict implementation of lockdown, he said that citizens should realise the gravity of the situation and extend cooperation to the administration in the implementation of lockdown by avoiding unnecessary visits out of their houses. “If we control ourselves for 14 days, then it will automatically lead to the control of the pandemic,” he said.More Related News
