Director-general of police (DGP) SR Mardi on Saturday said that Himachali residents who are stranded in foreign countries wanting to return can contact the resident commissioner of Himachal Bhawan in New Delhi as he has been made the nodal officer. This was stated by the DGP in a video message.

Mardi said that people who will enter the state from red zone areas will be kept in institutional quarantine. If their coronavirus results are found negative after six to seven days then these people will be allowed to go home where they will be kept in quarantine.

He said that many people are violating home quarantine norms and have been advised to obey the orders.

DGP said that some landlords are pressuring their tenants to pay rent and are also asking for advance payment of rent for at least a year which is not right. Landlords should understand the present situation which has arisen due to coronavirus pandemic, he added.
