Even as coronavirus is spreading its tentacles in the Bhadrachalam Agency predominantly inhabited by Adivasis, the demand for enhanced COVID-19 surveillance in the border mandals is fast gaining momentum. Bhadrachalam Agency, which shares inter-State borders with both Andhra Pradesh and Chhattisgarh, by and large remained unaffected by the deadly virus during the first wave of COVID-19 pandemic last year. However, the border mandals, mainly Charla and Dummugudem, have been witnessing a steady rise in the number of COVID-19 cases over the past few days.
