PC: Declare 4-week national lockdown

NEW DELHI: Congress veteran P Chidambaram Thursday said there should be an immediate lockdown of all towns and cities for two to four weeks to contain the spread of coronavirus. He tweeted that since Indian Council of Medical Research's (ICMR) random sample testing has revealed that there is no community transmission of coronavirus so far, this is the moment to announce a temporary lockdown and contain the global pandemic at stage 2 in the country.
