India coronavirus toll has surged to 873 including 19 deaths, registering over 100 new confirmed cases on Friday amid lockdown situation in the country to contain the virus from spreading further. India is under a 21-day lockdown period after Prime Minister Narendra Modi on March 24 urged people to strictly adhere to lockdown rules as it was very important to fight the virus at the current stage. He advised and warned people that if India fails to restrict the virus from spreading further then its impact would be devastating for all. Globally, there are now close to 6 lakh coronavirus confirmed cases including over 27,000 deaths.
In India, Maharashtra has the maximum number of confirmed coronavirus cases at 177 followed by Kerala at 166, Karnataka at 55, Rajasthan at 46 while Gujarat and Uttar Pradesh at 44. While in most parts of the country, people are seriously following the lockdown, however, what has become a concern for the authorities are migrant workers as companies, where they used to work, are closed forcing them to travel to their home towns but since there is no public or private transport available, workers have taken a walking path to reach their destinations. Meanwhile, state authorities have asked the administration to stop people from travelling as by doing this they will put themselves and others on risk.
