New Delhi/IBNS: Prime Minister Narendra Modi will interact with chief ministers of states through video conferencing on June 16 and 17.

"PM @narendramodi  will interact with state Chief Ministers on the 16th and 17th," the Prime Minister's Office tweeted.

Although the agenda of the meeting has not yet been specified in the statement, the meeting comes at a time when India on Friday recorded another grim milestone of crossing 3 lakh cases of coronavirus.

Amid the observance of 'Unlock 1.0' in India, the Asian country, with a population of 1.3 billion people, registered 2,903 cases during the later part of the day to reach a tally of 3,04,019 from 2,97,535.

The government had earlier eased restrictions and limited the lockdown to only containment zones till June 30 in an attempt to boost the economy.

As per various analyses, the pandemic will have a bearing effect on the country's economy pushing it to witness an increase in the number of people reeling under extreme poverty condition.
