The number of coronavirus cases in India has climbed to 15,707, which includes 507 deaths, the Union Health Ministry said today, adding that 1,329 cases and 27 deaths were reported in the last 24 hours. On Saturday, Defence Minister Rajnath Singh chaired a meeting of a Group of Ministers (GoM) at his residence to discuss "ways to mitigate the hardships faced by the people and the role ministries can play in providing relief to people". The GoM discussed re-starting economic activity in non-containment zones after April 20, in line with announcements made by Prime Minister Narendra Modi earlier this week. Later in the day, Union Home Minister Amit Shah reviewed the functioning of COVID-19 war room in the North Block of the Secretariat in the national capital, which is buzzing with activity since the nationwide lockdown began on March 25.
