The Delhi government in an order issued on Saturday announced an extension of the Covid-induced lockdown till June 7. This has been done, even though the active Covid-19 cases and case positivity rate in the city are declining, because "the situation is still precarious".

Essential activities and services will, of course, continue to be exempt. E-passes possessed by people for movement connected to essential goods and services will continue to be valid.

In addition, some previously prohibited activities will be permitted outside containment zones in the city from May 31 onwards.

Relaxations include:

. Operations of manufacturing/production units within closed premises in approved industrial areas.
. Construction



activities within work sites.
. In order to re-open manufacturing units and construction work, the following terms and conditions have to be met.
. Only asymptomatic workers and employees to be allowed at the workplace.
. Staggering of work/business hours to be followed at the workplace in order to ensure proper social distancing.
. Covid-appropriate behaviour to be strictly followed by all workers at workplace.
. Provision of thermal screening, hand wash and sanitizer preferably with touch-free mechanism to be made at all entry and exit points.
. Frequent sanitization of entire work place and common facilities to be ensured.

A manufacturing unit or construction site that violates these rules is liable to be closed. Legal action may also be taken.
