Udupi, Apr 27: BJP leader and MP Shobha Karandlaje has urged the state government to take precautionary measures for the people arriving from Mumbai and Bengaluru to Udupi and Chikkamagaluru. “People that are arriving from Mumbai, Bengaluru to Udupi and Chikkamagaluru should be made to undergo compulsory Covid tests. They should be quarantined until their test reports are received," she stressed.
"There are farmhouses in the villages of Chikkamagaluru which can be used as quarantine centres. But there is fear of the virus spreading in the city," she added.
Shobha further stated that she is in constant touch with the DC and health officials. "Everybody hopes that the number of infected people does not increase," Shobha said.
"I have requested for a list displaying fixed rates for Covid tests that can be put across private hospitals so that people can have access to them,” she said.
