Negative RT-PCR Covid test report mandatory for those arriving in Rajasthan from today

The Rajasthan government has made it mandatory for people to produce a negative RT-PCR Covid test report on arrival in the state from Thursday.

People arriving in Rajasthan from other states will have to produce a negative RT-PCR Covid test report from Thursday (25 March), the Rajasthan government said in its order. It said the test report should not be older than 72 hours from the time of arriving in the state. If the passenger does not have a negative Covid report, then he/she will have to stay in quarantine for 15 days. "In case of an emergency, a special permit might be issued to the passenger," Rajasthan minister Pratap Singh Khachariyawas said.
