Mumbai To Remain In Level-3 Of COVID-19 Curbs. What's Open, Timings Here

Mumbai Level-3 COVID-19 Curbs: Under the five-level plan, municipal corporations and districts in the state have been notified as independent administrative units, and can take decisions on categorisation for unlocking as per the criteria laid down by the government.

Mumbai will continue to be in category 3 of the Maharashtra government's five-level unlock plan that seeks to ease coronavirus-induced curbs as per infection positivity rate and oxygen bed occupancy numbers, the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation said on Friday. While announcing the decision, the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) also said the metropolis has had an average positivity rate of 3.96 per cent and oxygen bed occupancy of 23.04 per cent over the last two weeks. The decision came hours after the state government amended its five-level unlock plan implemented earlier this month and announced state-level trigger for imposing restrictions in administrative units irrespective of weekly positivity rate and oxygen bed occupancy percentage. State-level trigger means that irrespective of the weekly positivity rate and oxygen bed occupancy, level 3 restrictions will continue in administrative units till the district disaster management authority takes a call to withdraw them, according to a state government notification.
