Town buses plied to the border to drop off passengers
A total lockdown may be in force in Karnataka but that has not deterred workers from Tamil Nadu, engaged in various works such as construction activities and essential services, finding transport from the inter-State border to enter Karnataka. On the Tamil Nadu side, town buses plied to the border at the Zuzuvadi post to drop off passengers, who scurried their way by foot across the border on Wednesday to Athibelle for work. Many workers said that they were employed in the construction sector and had decided to hitch a ride on day one of the lockdown, whilst the border surveillance still remained lax.
