In Pics: Crowds Return To Delhi Markets As City Unlocks

Crowds were seen returning to the markets as shops, malls and restaurants in Delhi were allowed to open with restrictions from Monday. Shops in the city will be open seven days a week instead of the current odd-even system. The government, however, said this will be on trial basis for a week and strict action will be taken if the Covid numbers rise.
