The police have made elaborate arrangements to ensure compliance of the rules at night.
In Bengaluru, police commissioner Kamal Pant told reporters that vehicles providing essential services, patients and their relatives will be allowed to travel at night.
Besides, home delivery, e-commerce and the transportation of essential goods such as vegetables and food commodities for sale in the morning will be allowed in the night.
"Passengers coming to and going from Bengaluru are also allowed to travel. They must carry with them travel documents," Pant said.
Companies that operate at night can continue to function, but their employees have to report to work before 10pm.
