In light of a dramatic drop in new cases, several other states, including Delhi, Rajasthan, Uttar Pradesh, Maharashtra, and Jammu and Kashmir, have already eliminated most of the Covid-induced restrictions.
In light of a dramatic decrease in the number of new Covid-19 cases in the national capital, the Delhi Disaster Management Authority (DDMA) ruled on Thursday that there will be no charge for not wearing face masks in public areas.
