Mizoram would not object if Centre extends lockdown: CM

Aizawl: Mizoram chief minister Zoramthanga on Thursday said his government would not object if the Centre extends the nationwide lockdown beyond the present schedule.
The nationwide lockdown to contain the spread of novel coronavirus will end on April 14. Zoramthanga told PTI that Prime Minister Narendra Modil will convene video conference with chief ministers of all states to discuss the pandemic issues, including extension of lockdown.
“Even though Mizoram has reported only one positive case, it is harmful for the state to relax lockdown because of the surge in coronavirus case in neighbouring states and countries,” he said. (PTI)
