Karanataka government is only allowing inter-State travel to those carrying a negative RT-PCR report.
Manjeshwar MLA A. K. M. Ashraf sat on one-day fast, on August 15, to protest against the Karnataka government denying freedom of movement to those travelling across the border in the wake of an increase in COVID-19 cases. The protest on at the Thalappadi border was led by Member of Parliament Rajmohan Unnithan on Sunday. Mr. Ashraf said Karnataka is rejecting even the Centre's suggestion that, that RT-PCR should not be made mandatory for inter-State travelers who have received two doses of the vaccine. The ministry had also sent a letter to the States asking them to unify the protocol for passengers.More Related News
