Mumbai: The Maharashtra cabinet favors a “strict lockdown” and Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray is likely to make an announcement in this regard on Wednesday, a senior minister told PTI.

Public Works Minister Eknath Shinde and Health Minister Rajesh Tope have also announced that the cabinet has decided to cancel the Class 10 exam of the state board.

Maharashtra has been reporting over 50,000 coronavirus cases every day in the last two weeks but people are flouting the existing restrictions on movement and gatherings, the ministers said after a cabinet meeting on Tuesday.

“All the cabinet ministers expressed views in favor of a strict lockdown to minimize the spread of COVID-19. Ministers come from all corners of the state, so it also indicates that the entire state needs this measure,” Tope said.

“Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray could make an official announcement about more stringent measures tomorrow,” Tope added.
