Also, the shops were supposed to close at 9 pm. The easing will take effect on July 7. The government said the restrictions will continue until the positivity rate drops below 5 percent.

Meanwhile, the Jagan Mohan Reddy government has permitted to open restaurants, gyms, and wedding halls with corona regulations.
