Total number of coronavirus cases in the country has risen to 649, the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare said on Thursday.PM Modi announced countrywide 21days lockdown amid the rising cases of coronavirus in the country.But some netizens took to social networking sites and claimed that internet would also be closed for 10 days. Soon after the first tweet of internet ban, people started sharing the message and even took a swipe at it, asking PM Modi if the news is true!

Though the news making the rounds on the social media that internet is being closed for 10 days — starting 12 midnight — there has been no official confirmation made by any government official at any forum.
