The Centre on Wednesday indicated a significant easing of curbs in"orange" and "green" areas post-May 3, with
measures to increase economic activity and restore normal life. "New guidelines to fight Covid19 will come into effect
from May 4, which shall give considerable relaxations to many districts. Details regarding this shall be communicated in
the days to come," the home ministry said. The easing of curbs is likely to be most evident in districts that have had no
fresh cases for more than 28 days. "Red" zones may see only some relaxations outside of hotspots. Cities like Delhi,
Mumbai, Ahmedabad and Chennai, which are red zones and have a large number of hotspots, may experience only
limited relief. The Centre is considering graded opening of marketplaces and more shops than has been allowed so far.
But this is being weighed carefully. Sources said flights and trains are unlikely to resume immediately after May 3 though
more industries could be allowed to resume operations and defence production and ordnance factories may restart.
