Int’l passengers subject to random COVID sampling can leave airport after giving samples: Ministry of Civil Aviation
The Ministry of Civil Aviation (MoCA) on Wednesday said only two per cent of the passengers coming from countries that are not in the ‘at-risk’ list will be subject to random sampling for coronavirus and such passengers will be permitted to leave the airport after giving the samples.
Amid mounting concerns over the new COVID variant Omicron, stricter norms for international passengers came into effect from Tuesday midnight and all passengers coming from ‘at-risk’ countries have to compulsorily undergo COVID test, among other requirements.
