The government has again issued a stern warning to the people of the state to follow the norms and restrictions for the COVID-19 pandemic. Follow the rules, else the lockdown will have to be imposed again, an article in Shiv Senas editorial mouthpiece Saamana? read in Marathi.

The same warning has been given by the State Health Minister Rajesh Tope himself. The public should take it seriously, it added.

The article further said that the damage caused by lockdown is being reversed by unlocking it in a phased manner. At such a time, due to negligence of some overzealous people, the fear of COVID-19 should not rise again.

The public will have to avoid negligence and take necessary precautions. This is all it takes to crush the head of the virus again. This is the right time to be cautious, the editorial said.
