The cases recorded on Wednesday (June 2) were 561 and officials concerned are expecting further reduction in cases in the district in coming days.
In the wake of lockdown, curfew and other restrictions, there is no large gathering of people. People also realised the severity of the Covid pandemic and they have been voluntarily following restrictions. As a result, the cases are slowly reducing in the district. "Still 30 per cent of people are not serious over Covid and its restrictions and we are going to educate such people also," District Collector J Nivas explained.
