Is ELSS saving ( apr-june2020) is also claim for deduction in year 2019-2020

The government has extended the last date for tax saving for FY2019-20 from March 31, 2020 to June 30, 2020. 

it is applicable for
Section 80C (LIC, PPF, NSC etc.), 80D (Mediclaim), 80G (Donations), etc. has been extended to 30 June 2020. Hence the investment/payment can be made up to 30 June 2020 for claiming the deduction under these sections for FY 2019-20.

or ELSS savings also fall under this???
please clear with comments
