Bengaluru: Karnataka Medical Education Minister K Sudhakar on Monday, March 30 said all the people who are home quarantined in the state have to click their selfies using an app and send them to the government every one hour from home.

The selfie or photo will have GPS coordinates so the location of the sender would be known, he said in a release.
If those home quarantined failed to send selfies every one hour (except between 10 PM to 7 AM), then they would be shifted to government-created mass quarantine facilities, he said. Such action would be taken even if wrong photos are sent, he said.
Meanwhile, Karnataka Chief Minister B S Yediyurappa on Monday said ending of the 21 day nationwide lockdown depends on how strictly people follow it, as he urged them to follow the curfew and maintain social distancing.
