The tourist surge has added another layer of responsibility on the police, who have put up checkpoints at various entry and exit points to ensure Covid rules are being followed.
Work From Home, which has become the new normal amid the coronavirus pandemic, has turned into "Work From Himachal Pradesh", said the state's Director General of Police Sanjay Kundu as thousands flocked to the hill state to escape the confines of their homes and the heat. While the state's economy is seeing a welcome uptick, the crowds, not just in popular destinations like Shimla and Manali but also in lesser-known towns such as Naggar and Jibhi, are a cause of major concern, Mr Kundu said, urging tourists to follow Covid-appropriate behaviour. The tourist surge has added another layer of responsibility on the police, who have put up checkpoints at various entry and exit points to ensure Covid rules are being followed. "With the prolonged Work From Home (WFH) culture being adopted by many companies and multinationals, we are seeing that it has almost turned out to be Work From Himachal Pradesh," Mr Kundu told news agency PTI.More Related News
