India coronavirus toll continue to surge amid lockdown
At least two migrant workers, who travelled from Indore to Rajasthan amid coronavirus lockdown in the country have now been found positive for COVID-19 forcing the state administration to isolate entire village. Thousands of migrant workers have hit to streets and travelling for their home towns on foot as all public-private transport across the state have been shut down to strictly abide by the lockdown rules in order to contain the virus from spreading further. Trains, Metro, buses, taxis, cabs and all other means of public transport are shut due to coronavirus lockdown. The country has entered its 4th day of lockdown which has been imposed to stop virus from spreading to those parts where no case has been registered till date, but confirmed cases toll is showing an upward trend even as lockdown is in place.
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.
