Assam Health Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma has announced that to keep the COVID-19 situation under control, the state government would like to continue the lockdown till August 15.
“We’d like to continue with some restrictions, at least till August 15 because we don’t want to loosen our grip on the situation which is improving. If we can maintain our current testing trend, which has been very encouraging, we might even flatten the coronavirus curb by August 15,”Sarma said.
