District Collector D. Sajith Babu has said that all government employees in the district should undergo antigen test once in 14 days.

He directed the DMO (Health) to ready an inspection plan in this regard.

The Collector said although the number of COVID-19 cases in Kasaragod was less compared to other districts, caution should be maintained.

It was also decided to resume the KSRTC service on the Deli-Paravanadukkam route on national highway from Monday.

District Police Chief D. Shilpa, Sub Collector D.R. Meghashree, ADM N. Devidas, DMO A.V. Ramdas, and District Information Officer M. Madhusoodanan attended the meeting.
