People without RTPCR reports coming from Kerala undergo on-site tests at D.K. border
Strict Inspection by Police at Karnataka-Kerala Border
Mangaluru: It has been mandatory for those coming from Kerala to Karnataka via the D.K District border to possess a negative RTPCR report to avail entry into the district. In the wake of this mandatory requirement, check posts have been erected at the D.K and Kerala connecting border areas of Talapady, Jaalsur, Nettanige Mudnur, and Gram Panchayat jurisdiction, where police are inspecting travellers and allowing entry to only those who possess an RTPCR negative report.
The inspection routine began after 10 am at Mangaluru’s Talapady on Tuesday morning. Entry is being limited to individuals possessing the negative RTPCR report at these checkpoints. Those without the accompanying reports are offered free on-site tests, and the reports of this are made available to them after 2 days from the date of testing at the designated check posts.
With the rising number of COVID cases near the Kerala border regions, and in the wake of speculations surrounding the mutated strain of the COVID Delta variant, the State government has directed regions that share a border with Kerala to observe strict preventive measures and screen movements between borders. Therefore, the check posts in the Kerala and D.K District’s shared border area have undertaken strict preventive measures, in this regard.
