Huge crowd showed up at Mumbai’s Dadar market while the administration has been taking steps to contain the spread of COVID-19, but today, COVID-19 protocols went for a toss at the crowded Dadar market. People in the famous market were seen flouting social distancing norms and many were also seen without masks.

Mumbai reported 9,200 new COVID-19 cases on Friday.

The COVID-19 recovery rate in Mumbai has gone down to 79 per cent, according to the BMC. The overall infection growth rate has increased to 2.03 per cent, while the case doubling rate has dropped to 34 days, it said. The civic body said the city currently has 71 active containment zones, in slums and ‘chawls’ (old tenements), and 750 sealed buildings.
