Delhi can't have a permanent lockdown, Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal said this afternoon as he agreed in the same breath that the national capital, which has the third highest number of cases in the country, has seen a huge jump in the number of coronvirus cases.
"We agree that the city has seen a huge spike in the number of coronavirus cases. But we should not panic. It would be worrying for me in two scenarios - if the number of deaths increase and if there's a shortage of hospital beds," the Chief Minister said today during a video conference.
"A permanent lockdown is no solution. Life has to carry on with coronavirus with all the precautions," the Chief Minister further said, stressing that the national capital "is four steps ahead of coronavirus"
