However, while easing restrictions, strict social distancing norms would have to be followed. In taxis there would be just two persons allowed to travel, while in the autos it would one, apart from the driver, the official said.

The blueprints from the states as sought by Prime Minister Narendra Modi are with the Centre and almost all states have sought for an extension of the lockdown. The primary concern raised by the states is the influx of people from the other states. This would mean that there will be a restriction on trains and flights from the other states.
