Mumbai: In a major relief to officegoers and others who need to commute within the city and its vicinity, CM Uddhav Thackeray said on Sunday the general public would be allowed to board local trains from August 15, Independence Day, provided they had completed 14 days after the second dose.
There would be an app-based pass as well as an offline method to obtain the pass, he said in an address to the state on social media. He appealed to private offices to implement a system of staggered working hours to avoid crowding. About 19 lakh people in the city have been fully vaccinated so far.
On easing of curbs at places of worship and providing more relaxations to hotels, restaurants and malls, Thackeray said a decision would be taken in the next 8-10 days following a meeting with the state Covid task force on Monday.
Lockdown-like restrictions will be back if cases rise, warns CM
