Karnataka Chief Minister B.S. Yeddiyurappa on Friday ordered all malls, theatres and pubs to be shut for a week starting Saturday following the death of a man due to COVID-19 as well as a rise in positive cases, which stood at six.
"In the light of coronavirus outbreak, I am ordering the closure of malls, theatres and pubs for a week starting Saturday," said Yediyurappa after a meeting.
The state government has also cancelled marriages and social gatherings fearing the spread of the deadly virus.
