CHENNAI : PMK leader S Ramadoss on Thursday demanded that the state government enforce strict lockdown for the next couple of weeks to arrest the spread of Covid-19 cases and contain the pandemic.
He said the government had not enforced strict lockdown and a lot of people had not complied with lockdown guidelines.
“It is like rolling out a red carpet to coronavirus,” Ramadoss said in a statement.
Citing the Madras high court order expressing disappointment over the non-implementation of strict lockdown, the PMK leader said the number of Covid-19 cases had dropped to around 17,000 cases a day from the peak when the state recorded around 35,000 cases.
Though the number of cases declined, it was not the time to let the guard down, he said.
The neighbouring states like Karnataka and Kerala were continuing strict lockdowns though the number of cases was less than Tamil Nadu, he said.
