E-passes for emergency travel are now being offered by Andhra Pradesh.
DGP Gautam Sawang issued a stern warning to those breaking curfew rules.
Curfew violations can be reported on the Police Seva app.
VIJAYAWADA: AP DGP Gautam Sawang said on Sunday that a pass is required for all travel, including emergency travel, and that they will begin issuing e-passes for emergency travel on Monday. Those in need of passes, he said, can apply via the Police Seva app on their phones.
Inter-state movement restrictions will remain in place, according to Sawang, until the government makes a decision on the issue. He paid a surprise visit to Vijayawada on Sunday to inspect the state's partial curfew compliance. He urged the police not to tolerate any violations or to let their guard down, citing the recent increase in Coronavirus cases across the state.
