Mysore/Mysuru: BJP MLC A.H. Vishwanath has accused the personnel at Bavali check-post on the border of Karnataka and Kerala of taking money to allow people from across the State without RT-PCR negative report.
Addressing a news conference here yesterday, he said the Case Positivity Rate (CPR) was very high in Kerala resulting in high Corona positive cases daily. To protect people’s health, the Government of Karnataka has made it mandatory to produce RT-PCR negative report got done within 72 hours before entering the State from both Kerala and Maharashtra. However, the personnel at the Bavali check-post are reportedly collecting money to allow people from the neighbouring State without insisting on negative report. This has defeated the very purpose of the Government’s intentions, he added.
