While testing will be increased three times in these districts, the government will take possible measures, including contact tracing, to detect other positive cases.

Police personnel have been deployed in the border areas with West Bengal. Besides, sarpanches have been asked to identify those with recent travel history to the neighbouring state.

(With agency inputs)
After reviewing the situation, BMC has taken the decision to relax some conditions with immediate effect.
On the other hand, in view of the return of migrants from other states post-lockdown, Odisha Chief Minister Naveen Patnaik has advised to ramp up COVID-19 testing. He has suggested increasing the number of tests to 15000 per day by including private testing laboratories approved by ICMR.
As per the order, Orissa High Court has asked the State government to ensure that RT PCR test is conducted for those intending to return to Odisha. The tests should be conducted in the respective States from where people intend to return to Odisha. The returnees will only be allowed to enter Odisha if their test reports come negative for COVID-19, the directive read.
The directive assumes significance as the returnees were being released by other States only after a health screening.
“In the petition I had expressed apprehension regarding the steep rise in COVID-19 cases after the return of migrants to Odisha. The HC has directed the State government to ensure that RT-PCR test of people intending to return to Odisha is conducted and only those who test negative for COVID-19 should be allowed after prior registration,” said the petitioner.
It is pertinent to mention here that Odisha witnessed a steep increase in COVID19 positive cases and most of them are linked to people who returned from places like Surat, West Bengal, Maharashtra and Kerala.
Odisha today reported 24 COVID-19 cases including 17 from Ganjam, four from Mayurbhanj, two from Balasore & 1 from Jagatsinghpur districts.
So far around 40,000 people have returned from different States in the country to Odisha.
“So far, around 27000 people have returned to Ganjam from other States in 12 trains and 283 buses. There is no concrete information on how many more will come. Anyone found visiting quarantine centre will be forcibly quarantined or legal action will be taken,”said Ganjam Collector Vijay Kulange today.
Earlier, the total number of COVID-19 cases in Odisha had risen to 271 with the detection of 25 new positive cases today, informed the State Health and Family Welfare Department. Ganjam reported 24 fresh cases taking the number of COVID-19 positives in the district to 71, while Khurda reported one case. One person from Rourkela in Sundergarh district has recovered and tested negative for the virus today, informed State Health & Family Welfare Department.

Meanwhile, Odisha government spokesman on COVID-19 Subroto Bagchi informed that the mandatory institutional quarantine of 14 days has now been increased to 21 days.
