During the lockdown, no one will be allowed to move outside the home. All private, autonomous and government offices will remain shut. No vehicle will ply on the roads.
However, the emergency service outlets, in addition to people and vehicles associated with the service, will remain out of the purview of the restriction.
In emergency cases, people are allowed to move publicly after taking a movement pass from the authorities.
