India must focus on its economy even as it races to save lives by containing the spread of coronavirus infections, Prime Minister Narendra Modi said at a meeting with state leaders to discuss the country’s ongoing lockdown.
Modi warned that the impact of the epidemic will remain visible for several months and asked the states to enforce lockdown guidelines strictly in the worst-hit virus hot spots or red zones, according to a
statement issued by the Press Information Bureau.
Modi’s statement provided no specific new measures to boost the economy.
