The Maharashtra government has lifted all COVID-19 restrictions from today. The wearing of masks will be voluntary. However, the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) has appealed to citizens to continue wearing masks as a precautionary measure.

“The threat of the novel Coronavirus has not yet been completely eradicated from the world.  As a precautionary measure, citizens should voluntarily wear masks to protect themselves,” said Suresh Kakani, additional municipal commissioner.
