On Monday, as announced by the President earlier, both cities were under a partial lockdown starting from 1:00AM. Movement of peoples to and from the cities shall be banned until 2 weeks, when it is expected to be over.
As a results, there was excessive boycott of the cities by people who are travelling to their various hometowns to escape the lockdown, prior to Monday.
It is known that people can move out only to get essential items like Food and water. Health workers, and other public and private workers are permitted to do their daily job.
