The initial 14days lockdown in the affected states began March 30th 2020 and was due to be lifted on 13th April 2020.
The President stated the extended days of lockdown was a difficult decision to take but was crucial at this point due to the "alarming" increase in positive cases of the deadly pandemic virus.
