People came out on South Veli Street in Madurai earlier today to protest against the various restrictions imposed on movement amid coronavirus lockdown, demanding that restrictions must be lifted.

However, they later dispersed, after being persuaded by police.

The lockdown which was first imposed in March has been extended to curb the spread of coronavirus.

According to information available on the website of Ministry of Health and Family Welfare, as of 2:00 AM on Monday, 2757 COVID19 cases have been reported from the state with 1341 cured/migrated/discharged and 29 deaths.
