With the increase in the number of cases, VMC will adopt “zoning, screening & sampling” strategy
Yesterday officer at special duty(OSD) Dr. Vinod Rao held a press conference in which he announced that Vadodara city is now divided into 4 zones: Red, Orange, Yellow, and Green as a part of strategic planning.

Vadodara Police will have daily surveillance done by CCTV cameras.

“City command and Control Center is declared as a ‘war room’ where extensive surveillance will be done through CCTV cameras network to catch hold on people violating the lockdown notification. The task force will be formed to combat the situation in which health experts, private doctors, retired doctors, and government doctors will be part of it to give guidance to VMC.” Said Dr. Vinod Rao
