Mangaluru: Dakshina Kannada Deputy Commissioner Dr. KV Rajendra on Monday informed that people traveling from Kerala into Dakshina Kannada district will have to mandatorily provide RT-PCR Negative report to enter the district.
The Deputy Commissioner noted that the decision comes in the wake of the State government’s guidelines to take measures to contain the Delta variant of COVID-19. He added that the suspected rise in Delta variant cases in Kerala prompted the district administration to take the decision.
Checkpoints will be set up for 24/7 monitoring of the vehicles and people coming from Kerala into Dakshina Kannada. Rajendra further added the administration will set up additional checkpoints on entry points from Kerala under gram panchayath limits across the border.
Even the patients entering the district from Kasargod and other parts of Kerala will have to mandatorily possess the negative report. The administration will also set up swab collection centers at the checkpoints.
