The officials urged the Centre for the release of more funds under disaster management so that the State can meet any eventuality arising out of the increasing number of corona cases. They also explained the impact of corona on State revenues.
The Cabinet Secretary assured the State of all possible assistance from the Centre in dealing the situation. Somesh Kumar explained the measures being taken up by the State Government in containment zones and other measures like sealing of borders with neighbouring states like Maharashtra where there was huge surge of corona positive cases.
