India records another massive spike: 89129 new COVID-19 cases recorded, 714 deaths 

During the same period, 714 people also died due to the virus.

The total death toll due to the virus now stands at 1,64,110.

There are 6,58,909 active cases in the country at present.

Maharashtra Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray on Friday did not rule out the possibility of lockdown across the entire state in the view of a surge in the coronavirus cases.

"I cannot rule out imposing a lockdown if the current COVID-19 situation prevails. People have become complacent. We are in a Catch 22 situation - should we look at economy or health?" Thackeray said in a televised address.

"If this condition continues, I have told you already that in 15 days we will exhaust our infrastructure. So today I am giving a warning of a lockdown. Not announcing a lockdown yet. But if I don't find a solution in two days after speaking to more people, then I have no option," he said.

Maharashtra reported the highest daily new cases at 47,827 on Friday. 202 deaths were recorded during the same period.

Several districts have announced special restrictions like night curfew including Pune.

Authorities in Pune have ordered a 12-hour night curfew starting 6 pm Saturday for a period of at least one week, with a review of the order and coronavirus situation in the district scheduled for next Friday.

Religious places, hotels and bars, shopping malls, and movie theatres will all remain closed for the next seven days, Pune Divisional Commissioner Saurabh Rao said Friday afternoon.

Only home deliveries of food, medicines and other essential services will be allowed in this period.
