"We had been successful at the beginning in controlling the COVID, but in recent days especially in Bengaluru the COVID cases have increased….I want to tell the people of the state that for the control of the virus, lockdown was not the solution. The solution is wearing masks and maintaining social distancing," Yediyurappa said.
