When did India declare its first lockdown?

India declared its first lockdown on March 25. This was announced by the Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi. He declared that the lockdown would be a complete one without any chance for people to enjoy their social lives like before, except for those who would be offering essential services and those who would make essential commodities available.

The Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi noted that declaring a total lockdown that would be effective in every part of the country was one of the ways by which the country can sustain the fight against the novel coronavirus.

He said one of the major things the lockdown would achieve is that it will reduce or break the cycle of infection, thereby reducing the rate at which the virus will be passed from an infected person to other people. The lockdown, which started on March 25, lasted for about 21 days, and the declaration came at a time when India just recorded 536 cases.

The correct answer to this question is March 25. The lockdown in India was put in place by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, as a way to prevent the spread of COVID-19. They started their lockdown early on, where there population of over one billion only had 500 cases of the virus.

It was a strict lockdown, with a number of rules that the citizens needed to follow. One of those rules is that a person could not leave their home, unless they were going to a grocery store or going to get medical attention. Only essential works, such as someone working in a store or hospital, were able to work in the building. Everyone else had to work from home.
