Mumbai Unlock : New Rules Start From 7th June 2021

The Maharashtra government has announced a five-level plan to unlock various cities and districts in the state based on the Covid positivity rate and occupancy of oxygen beds.

The Maharashtra government has announced a five-level unlock plan for the phased opening of the ongoing lockdown in the state beginning Monday. The five-level unlock plan is based on Covid positivity rate and the availability of oxygen beds in the state. 

Level 1 : Cities and districts with less than 5 percent positivity rate and less than 25 per cent occupancy of oxygenated beds will fall in this category. 

Level 2 : Cities and areas having less than 5 percent positivity and oxygenated bed occupancy between 25 and 40 per cent will come under this category. 

Level 3: Cities and areas with positivity between 5 percent and 10 percent, or oxygenated bed occupancy more than 40 per cent will fall in the category. 

Level 4: Areas having positivity between 10 percent and 20 per cent, or having oxygenated bed occupancy of more than 60 per cent come under this.

Level 5: These are areas having a positivity rate of more than 20 per cent, or having oxygenated bed occupancy of more than 75 per cent. This category is theoretical at the moment; there is not a single district or city that falls under this category as of now

The degree of relaxation has been decided as per the level of severity of Covid-19 in those districts.  Mumbai has been classified as level 3.
