Kerala makes registration on Jagrata portal mandatory for returning Indians

Our Correspondent
Kerala has made it compulsory for non-resident Indians returning to the state to register in the COVID-19 Jagrata portal. This is in the light of the increasing number of passengers to the State, and will help to make checkout and surveillance during mandatory quarantine easier.
After booking tickets to return home, all passengers are required to register under the International Returnees window under Public Services. This is compulsory for both Vande Bharat Mission and chartered flight passengers.
