New Delhi/IBNS: The Lok Sabha was on Monday adjourned for an indefinite period of time over the Novel Coronavirus scare after the passage of Finance Bill.

The bill was passed in presence of Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

It was passed without any discussion.

Several parliamentarians were demanding an immediate suspension of the Budget Session of Parliament out of fear of COVID-19. 

The central government has intended to deal with the violators of lockdown strictly as the total positive Novel Coronavirus cases across the country rose to 415 on Monday.

Maharashtra and Kerala have reported the maximum number of cases as 67 people in both the states have been infected with COVID-19.

29 people in Delhi, 28 in Uttar Pradesh, 27 in Rajasthan and 26 in Karnataka have been infected with the deadly disease.

The central government has asked the state governments to enforce lockdown which has been imposed in 75 districts across the country.

The Centre has also said the violators of the lockdown will face legal consequences.
