As per the new rules, all commercial establishments should shut down by 9 p.m. and curfew restrictions will begin from 10 p.m.

The revised curfew hours will come into force from July 8, a release from the Chief Minister's Office said.

The night curfew from 7 pm to 7 am and weekend curfew (for entire day) will, however, continue in all the districts, he said.

The curfew duration, however, has been curtailed by two hours a day and will be in force from 2 PM to 6 AM after June 10.

Chief Minister Y S Jagan Mohan Reddy took the decision to extend the curfew after a review of the current COVID-19 scenario in the state, official sources said.
