Breaking: Goa is no more Green Zone

A few weeks ago, Goa had been stated as a green zone, with no single case having been reported in over 7 days. However, the same cannot be said anymore about Goa now.

Goa has now reported a total of 7 new cases, officially ending its status as a green zone.

The Central Government had given a few relaxations in green and orange zones since May 4th, while Red zones continue to observe a total lockdown.

As part of the relaxations, liquor shops have been opened, which resulted in a huge chaos where people took no precautions and didn't even observe social distancing. While the source of the new infections in Goa is still unknown, the government should better regulate the relaxations and impose stricter rules.

The nationwide lockdown has further been extended, but Prime Minister Narendra Modi said that it will come with new rules, which will be announced soon.
