International Travel guidelines revised: From no mandatory isolation facility for international travelers to home quarantine, know latest rules
According to the revised guidelines, people who travel to India from any country, and test positive, are not mandated to the airport isolation facility.

Amid the ongoing Covid-19 crisis, international travel has been under a risky title. The government released certain guidelines for international travel ever since December, 2021, when Covid-19 cases began to surge for the third time.
According to the revised guidelines, people who travel to India from any country, and test positive, are not mandated to the airport isolation facility. However, such individuals will have to be kept under home quarantine for a duration of seven days, even if they test negative. After the seven-day quarantine, they will have to undertake RT PCR test on the eighth day of their arrival in India.
These new guidelines were released on Thursday, January 20, 2022, and will be bought into effect from Saturday, January 22, 2022.
According to the previous guidelines, those who travelled in India from any country were considered to be at-risk to be infected with Covid-19. These individuals were to stay in an isolation facility, and be treated in accordance with standard Covid-19 protocols. These guidelines are released and revised by the government.
However, if one goes through the revised guidelines, changes in relation to isolation facility can be noted. The clause that mentioned that travelers will have to stay in the isolation facility for seven days, has now been removed.
The government has said that the travelers who will show any symptoms during screening, even mild ones, will have to be put under isolation immediately. These individuals will be taken to a medical facility at the earliest. According to the norms, in case anyone is found Covid-19 positive, their family or knowns will be contacted.
It is advisable for travelers who will be arriving in India, to pre-book their RT PCR online through Air Suvidha Portal. All travelers are also supposed to submit full and factual information in the self-declaration form. They also have to upload a negative Covid-19 RT PCR report. The test should be taken within 72 hours prior to the flight.

A bizarre incident is coming to light from Uttar Pradesh’s Meerut where thieves robbed jewellery worth Rs 15 lakhs from a shop by digging a 10 ft foot tunnel through a drain. The incident happened in the jewellery shop located under the Nauchandi Police Station area.

The Meerut Police reached the spot and stated that the thieves dismantled bricks and mud from the drain’s weak boundary to enter the shop. The thieves ran away with jewellery worth lakhs of rupees.

Meerut Police have started a probe into the matter and action will be taken thereafter.
Last month too, a similar incident took place where a group of thieves dug a 15-foot-long tunnel from a drain and attempted to rob a jewellery store, but they could not fully open the vault. Later, they scrawled a message of apologies to the store owner before they fled.
