This move comes after the State government issued new guidelines for people coming from Kerala as the neighbouring State experienced a spike in positive cases recently.

The new guidelines had made it mandatory for travellers from Kerala to posses a COVID-19 negative test report.

The check posts at the border with Kerala is also proposed to conduct rapid antigen tests for those entering the district.

Those who already have a negative test report must show it at the check post. The reports should not be older than 72 hours, the DC said.
