The administration has also stated that more activities will be allowed outside the containment zones in a calibrated manner and the 'National Directives' for COVID-19 management have to be followed to a tee. At present, UP has 1,04,388 confirmed COVID-19 cases and 41,973 active cases.

Even during such a grave situation at hand, the authorities are putting their best foot forward to make our lives convenient and in order to keep it that way, do follow the directives as suggested by the medical professionals. Even if you're stepping out for your essentials, do not forget your masks and sanitizers and maintaining a distance is an absolute must!
