Tamil Nadu Chief Minister MK Stalin on Sunday extended the Covid-19 restrictions from November 15 to November 30. The lockdown has also been extended in view of the widespread rainfall in the state due to the northeast monsoon and the risk of diseases like dengue spreading, the government said in its order.

Stalin also urged the people above 18 years of age, who are yet to receive the first dose of the Covid-19 vaccine, to inoculate themselves against the disease. He also urged those who are partially vaccinated to not miss their second doses.
The government also directed local administrations to only allow essential activities within containment zones. Door-to-door monitoring of the disease transmission would be done by medical teams. The government also advised the people to boil drinking water during the rainy season citing the risk of the spread of water-borne diseases.
