PALAKKAD: Minister A K Balan has reiterated that Malayalis coming to Kerala from other states should have a pass issued by the collector of the district they are coming from and the collector of the district they are reaching.

“Procedures at borders will be completed only as per the guidelines issued by the Central and State government. Without the pass or following specified procedures, it is not right to create commotion at the border.

There is high chance for communal transmission of the disease if people don’t follow Covid protocol issued as part of preventive measures. Don’t think that one can cross over to Kerala by reaching the borders, putting pressure on authorities by creating ruckus along the border. If the people are coming from Red Zones, red sticker should be stuck on their vehicles. Vehicles coming from Green Zone should have green sticker,” he explained.
