Mangaluru: People coming from Kerala to Karnataka should undergo week-long institutional quarantine, informed the state government on Monday, August 30.
The decision was taken in a coronavirus review meeting chaired by Chief Minister Basavaraj Bommai.
Testing on the 7th day has been made compulsory even if persons are vaccinated and hold a negative RT-PCR test.
Night curfew has been relaxed in districts other than Kodagu, Hassan, Dakshina Kannada, and Udupi districts. Weddings and other events are allowed with 50 percent occupancy of halls, with maximum limit of 400 guests.
Officers were directed to consider relaxing certain restrictions in Chikkamagaluru, Hassan, Mysuru, Shivamogga, Kolar, and Kalaburgi districts.
In view of high caseload in Kerala, it was decided that districts near its borders – Dakshina Kannada and Kodagu – will not have any relaxations.
Restrictions on the movement of people enforced at the border with Kerala will continue as there has been no change in the Covid-19 situation in Kerala, Dakshina Kannada district Deputy Commissioner K V Rajendra had said earlier in the day.
