In spite of Allahabad High Court's directions to shut down the capital city of Lucknow, Prayagraj, Varanasi, Kanpur, and Gorakhpur till April 26, the Uttar Pradesh govt. has said that no lockdown will be imposed amid the rising cases of the Covid-19.

PM Narendra Modi on Monday interacted with Uttar Pradesh CM Yogi Adityanath Monday discussing the efforts his government has taken to control the Covid spread. Upon PM's asking, Yogi assured that the govt. is working full force to control the coronavirus.

'The state government is working with full commitment to control coronavirus infections and a strategy is being worked on for extensive testing, tracking and tracking of continuous supply of oxygen along with the availability of ICU beds for prevention of Covid-19,' Adityanath said in an official statement.

Earlier the CMO had stated that there is no need to impose a complete lockdown as a weekend lockdown is sufficient to curb the spread.
