Maharashtra Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray on Sunday addressed the state on a number of issues. CM expressed concern over rising coronavirus cases in the state. He warned the citizens about the re-imposition of a strict lockdown in the state.

He also announced a campaign called ‘My family, my responsibility’ in the state from Tuesday. In the campaign health workers would visit every household twice to chase the virus, he said if people failed to adhere to all norms when in public then lockdown will be reimposed.

As part of the campaign, he appealed to all elected representatives, from MPs and MLAs to corporators, to take up the responsibility of their respective constituencies in the fight against Covid-19. He said the health workers would identify vulnerabilities such as people above the age of 50 years with co-morbidities in each household and treat them.

In his 35-minute address, Thackeray said people were not following physical distancing norms and other measures in the city. He said that the state had to fine people for not using masks or for crowding, as was being done in other countries.
