Pune: Maharashtra Deputy Chief Minister Ajit Pawar on Saturday asked people not to lower their guard against COVID-19 in view of the possible third wave of the pandemic, and warned them against visiting tourist attractions in the present scenario just because restrictions have been eased.
He said people need to take the warning about the third wave seriously. Pawar was talking to reporters here after holding a meeting with officials to review the coronavirus situation in Pune district.
He also said that if people continue to go out of the district for tourism purposes, the administration will have no other option but to impose a 15-day quarantine regime on such people after their return home.
