Ahmedabad has become a major concern as authorities battle a surge in deaths and cases. FMTNews
Policemen check on motorists during lockdown to curb the spread of the virus in Ahmedabad last week.
Ahmedabad accounts for 343 of the almost 2,000 deaths reported nationwide and just under 10% of cases registered. Other cities in Gujarat state have also been badly hit. India has been in the grip of the world’s biggest lockdown since March 25, which was made stricter in Ahmedabad on Friday because of the accelerated spread of the virus.
Authorities have insisted the pandemic crisis is under control and have started to ease restrictions in many parts of India to let agriculture and some companies get back to work. Experts however have warned of an increasing toll despite the lockdown.
