Coronavirus Crisis / New zealand bans entry of indian travellers due to covid 19 surge in country

New Zealand has banned entry of passengers coming from India. On Thursday, New Zealand PM Jasinda Ardern announced this temporary ban. Jesinda Ardern said that from April 11, entry of people coming from India will be banned. New Zealand has taken this decision due to the rapid increase in Corona cases. Even before this, New Zealand has banned entry of passengers from many other countries. Earlier, New Zealand had decided to stop the entry of Indians, but then that decision was withdrawn. Now this decision has been taken due to the new wave once again.

According to the Reuters report, the entry of its citizens of New Zealand will also be stopped during this period, which will be coming from India. This ban will be in force from 4 pm to 28 April on 11 April. During this time the government will work to strengthen the risk management during the journey. This temporary ban is being imposed by New Zealand at a time when more than 1 lakh new corona cases are being received in India every day for the past several days.

The total number of corona infects in the country has now crossed 12 million. In India, the second wave has caused more havoc than the first wave in the last one month. The days of sanctions have returned to various cities from Mumbai to Delhi. Somewhere lockdown has been enforced to deal with the corona, while somewhere restrictions like night curfew and section 144 have been implemented.
