On Thursday, the Karnataka chief minister's office announced that the Chinnaswamy Stadium and Palace Grounds will be turned into COVID care centres. The move comes as the state records a high spike in cases.

Earlier this week, the BBMP announced that the Bengaluru International Exhibition Centre will be converted into a COVID care centre. This will be India's largest COVID care centre so far, housing 10,000 beds. The decision comes as Bengaluru's cases cross the 28,000-mark.
