Local bodies having a TPR of above 20 per cent and below 30 per cent can open only shops selling essential commodities daily. They can function daily from 7.00 AM to 7.00 PM. Other shops can be open only on Friday, from 7.00 AM to 7.00 PM. The chief minister called this

"complete lockdown".

In local bodies with a TPR above 30 per cent, there will be triple lockdown. And in these local bodies, COVID tests will also be increased in proportion with the TPR. In other words, there will be far higher tests in local bodies with over 30 percent TPR than in areas where the TPR is low.
