India New Corona Infection Continues to Extend Restrictions on Outing, May 13 at 6:26
India's Prime Minister Modi said that while the outbreak of the new coronavirus continued to spread, he said that the prolonged outbound restrictions would seriously damage the economy, and he eased outbound restrictions to a certain extent and implemented an economic measure of JPY 28 trillion in Japanese yen. I went and emphasized my attitude to tackle the economic recovery.
India's Prime Minister Modi gave a television speech on the 12th, saying that he will "execute restrictions in a new format" regarding the outbound restrictions that have been ongoing since the end of March to prevent the spread of the new coronavirus. We have indicated a policy of easing to a certain extent.
Furthermore, as an economic measure, India's GDP = 20 trillion rupees, which is 10% of the gross domestic product, and 28 trillion yen in the Japanese yen, will support workers who lost their jobs and rebuild industries that have been hit hard. I announced that I will proceed.
The government will soon announce the details of how to ease restrictions on going out and economic measures, but Prime Minister Modi's prolongation of going out restrictions has a serious impact on the economy. It seems that there is an aim to alleviate the dissatisfaction of the people by showing the attitude to work on recovery.
On the other hand, the number of people infected with the new coronavirus in India has exceeded 70,000, and the spread has not been stopped, and there is concern that the infection will spread further by relaxing the restrictions by prioritizing the economy.
