Mysore/Mysuru: With Mysuru witnessing an alarming surge in the number of
COVID-19 positive cases, District Minister S.T. Somashekar visited Bavali check-post on Karnataka-Kerala border this morning and reviewed the COVID control measures being taken up.
Earlier this month, the District Administration had made production of RT-PCR negative report mandatory for all travellers from Kerala who were visiting Karnataka and had set up a COVID-19 Inspection Centre and Border Facilitation Centre at Bavali and other check-posts bordering Kerala, which was one among the States that first experienced a sudden spurt of the deadly pandemic.
Speaking after inspecting Bavali check-post, Somashekar said that those travellers who are not in possession of RT-PCR negative report are being sent back to Kerala from the check-post.
