Bhopal (Madhya Pradesh): A day after the state government lifted restrictions, the people threw caution to the winds on Saturday as they were seen moving without masks and flouting social distancing. The district administration appeared to have turned a blind eye to it.

Chief minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan had appealed to people to adhere to safety norms. But CM’s appeal seems to have fallen on deaf ears.

On Saturday, Madhya Pradesh reported 7 more deaths due to COVID and the toll went up to 10,689. The positivity rate was 3.2 % with 2,438 new COVID cases. As many as 22,390 active cases have been reported in the state. Bhopal reported 512 cases. Indore reported 220 cases.
