The Hindu
With declining TPR, it is now a Category 2 district; additional activities permitted with immediate effect
Mysuru, which was the sole district in the State under total lockdown because of its test positivity rate (TPR), has now been partially unlocked with effect from Friday (June 25) following its inclusion under Category 2 district based on the weekly moving average positivity rate (as on June 25). The district was earlier included in Category 3 with no relaxation in lockdown curbs. With this, all the additional activities permitted for Category 2 districts will be applicable to Mysuru as well with immediate effect and will be in force up to 5 a.m. on July 5. Consistent declining trend of the positivity rate also played a role in slackening of the curbs in the district. Mysuru district was included in Category 3 district since its positivity rate was above 10 per cent and the stakeholders here had been demanding easing of restrictions promising to follow COVID-19 Appropriate Behaviour. Also, Chamarajanagar district has been brought under Category 1 district.
