Management of quarantine challenging

Kathmandu - Local levels in Kailali are finding a hard time managing the quarantine centres set up for people returning from India and third countries. The number of people coming into quarantine continues to rise as people continue to return by foot from various parts of the country.

As locals continue to arrive every day, the quarantine centres have become full. Tikapur municipality began with one quarantine at Tikapur multiple campus but has added four more such centres to accommodate the increasing arrivals. So far, 70 people have been sent home after completing quarantine requirements, the municipality health and population promotion unit chief Bal Bahadur Rawal said.
