Adilabad: The spread of coronavirus to rural areas is hampering agricultural activities, which otherwise busy with field works during this season.
In the initial days of corona outbreak, rural people are more vigilant compared to urban people. But the virus spread its tentacles to rural areas also with about 200 to 300 positive cases being traced out in Adilabad, Nirmal, Mancherial and Asifabad districts.
