No question of re-imposing lockdown: Karnataka Minister K. Sudhakar

There is no question of re-imposing a lockdown, a Karnataka minister said on Sunday, seeking to dispel speculation over this issue. "The question of re-imposing lockdown does not arise," said Medical Education Minister K. Sudhakar told media persons as he toured Kalaburagi and Bidar districts to visit medical colleges, meet people and officials to discuss the Covid scenario. Amid rising infections, there was speculation that the lockdown may be clamped down again as Prime Minister Narendra Modi plans to talk to Chief Ministers on June 16 and 17. As part of World Blood Donors Day, Sudhakar also donated blood at Kalaburagi. (IANS)
