Panaji, April 6 : Goa Chief Minister Pramod Sawant on Tuesday urged the people of the state not to mix with tourists, as highest number of new Covid-19 cases were reported in 24 hours, but refrained from imposing restrictions on inter-state movement.
Sawant, however, said that he had directed the district administration and the state police to crack down on SOP violations, while also laid out fresh guidelines for holding public and private events. Tourists alone do not spread Covid-19 but people should not mix up with the tourists. Those who are above 45 (years) and working in the tourism industry, should get themselves vaccinated immediately, Sawant told reporters, after a meeting of the State Disaster Management Committee at the Secretariat.
