As a precautionary measure, the Telangana government has decided not to allow traffic from other States for 24 hours. The 24-hours self isolation will begin from 6 a.m. on Sunday.
Public staying on the borders are requested to observe ‘Janata Curfew’ as well as 24-hour self isolation.
All the State borders, sub-roads and other thoroughfares will be closed. Private vehicles, travel operators, autos and RTC buses of neighbouring States have been requested not to enter Telangana from 6 a.m. on Sunday to 6 a.m. on Monday.
Task Force teams have been arranged, which will restrict the entry of vehicles of other States on the borders. The measure has been taken to prevent the dreaded coronavirus, the officials said.
However, there will be relaxation from self isolation for emergency services such as ambulances, milk vans, vehicles carrying medicines and the media personnel.
Private travel operators running their services to Hyderabad, Rangareddy, Karimnagar, Khammam and other places from Chhattisgarh, Andhra Pradesh, Odisha and other States have been requested to cooperate, the officials said.
