‘Do not switch off mobiles’: Karnataka minister as foreign nationals go missing

Karnataka Health Minister Dr. K Sudhakar stated that there are reports that several foreigners could not be tracked after arriving in Bangalore, but the police are efficient enough to track these people, but this is not the right way. Passengers should act in a responsible manner. “But my appeal is that no one should turn off their mobile phones and perform tracking. This is not the right way. They should act responsibly,” the minister said.

Karnataka, which reported two Omicron cases, is not the only company facing the issue of missing international travelers. Dr. Akhilesh Mohan, Chief Medical Officer of Meerut, Uttar Pradesh, said that some foreigners have provided the government with wrong mobile phone numbers and addresses. Dr. Mohan told ANI that at least 13 of the 297 foreign returnees had done so.

In Chandigarh, it was reported that a woman returning from South Africa violated the family quarantine regulations and went to a five-star hotel, demanding the government to take severe measures.

India has confirmed two Omicron cases and has submitted several suspected samples for genome sequencing. The first Omicron case was also a South African national who flew to Dubai after testing negative within a few days of Covid testing positive. The Karnataka government has ordered the state and the country as South Africa’s first Omicron national to travel to Dubai within one week after testing positive. According to reports, he tested negative at a private testing agency, which has now attracted government attention. However, all his primary and secondary contacts tested negative.

“This person (66 years old) was quarantined in a hotel and he went from there (foreign). First, his (coronavirus test) report was positive, and then he tested negative. Whether there was any mishandling, regardless of the experiment The Commissioner of Police has been instructed to investigate whether the laboratory test is accurate or whether there is any wrongdoing,” said Revenue Minister R Ashoka.
