Despite the rising coronavirus cases and CM Uddhav Thackeray's "final warning", hundreds of people, with masks below their noses and no social distancing, gathered at a market in Mumbai on Monday morning.

Despite Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray's "final warning" and a spike in coronavirus cases across Maharashtra for the past few days, hundreds of people, with masks below their noses and no social distancing, were seen at a market in Mumbai on Monday morning. A huge crowd gathered to shop at a Dadar market in Mumbai even when the Maximum City has been reporting a spike in its daily coronavirus cases. In the past 24 hours, Mumbai reported 1,962 new coronavirus cases, according to the official data. Pictures of the huge crowd at the Mumbai market showed people shopping without following the basic coronavirus-related guidelines such as wearing masks and practicing social distancing.
