To fight this, the state government is interested on bringing in strict rules against those mocking physical distancing measures in public. A specific rule book will be out in a few days, he said. The Minister on Wednesday held a meeting with a proficient committee concerning COVID-19. Stating that political and religious groups have been on a high following the easing of lockdown restrictions, Sudhakar said this has led to the rapid expanse of the virus.
