No more than 1.5 million people returned from abroad: Medical examination of all: explosion of cabinet secretary

New Delhi, Mar 27, 2020, Friday

The challenges facing the government and the system in fighting the Corona virus are no less.

The central government has announced a lockdown, but not all those returning from abroad have received medical checkups. Not even a watch is kept on all these people.

Cabinet Secretary Rajiv Gaba has written to the states informing them that recently 1.5 lakh people have returned from abroad but not all medical examinations have been done or not. There is a big difference between the number of those who have been examined and those who have been kept on watch and those who have returned from abroad.

He said that the Center has often referred the matter to the states. Otherwise, efforts to prevent corona can have a serious impact. Most of the Corona positive patients in India are from abroad.
