'Uninvited arrivals' will be put under 21-day quarantine: JK admn
The Jammu and Kashmir administration on Thursday said if people who are stranded outside the union territory return without informing the authorities, they will be kept under a 21-day quarantine instead of the usual two weeks.
The administration asked people to wait for it to prepare a standard operating procedure (SOP) in this regard and follow that.
This comes a day after the Centre allowed migrant workers, tourists, students and other people stranded in different parts of the country due to the ongoing lockdown to move to their respective destinations with certain conditions.
Listing the conditions, the Union Home Ministry said all states and union territories should designate nodal authorities and develop standard protocols for receiving and sending such stranded persons.
"It is very important. We ask (people) to wait for the SOP. Uninvited arrivals will be put under 21 days' (administrative) quarantine and others will be sent to home quarantine. Waiting is advisable," Ajeet Sahu,
