Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal, on Tuesday, said that the curbs in the city - that were brought in due to Omicron-driven surge - are likely to be dropped soon.
On January 13, the city had seen a record high in daily surge with 28,867 infections. Two days later, the city saw a positivity rate of 30.5 per cent, the highest amid the third wave.
The Delhi government last week had recommended the lifting of weekend curfews in the national capital in view of declining Covid cases. The file was forwarded to the office of Lieutenant Governor Anil Baijal for his approval but was rejected.
In Delhi, 100% of people have got the first dose and 82% of people have received both doses of the Covid vaccine, Mr Kejriwal said last week.
