    To be safer side... Impose home quarantine for all the inmates of the house... for minimum 15 days... or 30 days..

    That will save entire locality or Village lockdown..

    I think it's time for the state government to impose only home quarantine.The government can utilise that money for the welfare of healthcare provider professionals who are selflessly going about with their duties.
    As citizens it is our responsibility to obey the law and stay at home during quarantine.
    Follow good hygiene, wear mask in public places, wash hands frequently.
    Covid 19 has come to stay, accept the truth

    Would appreciate if the DC or any other authorities explain how geofencing is enforced through the app. The app is on the phone. So what happens if the person on home quarantine leaves the phone at home and goes roaming everywhere. How will the geo fencing work under such a situation?

    This govt doesn't think at all before taking any decision.. no wonder they are so hell bent against intellectuals... they want all the smart one's to go to Pakistan... The dumber the public better chances of winning elections... Can easily claim that India has an appx 38pc dumb population

    The tracking authorities are happy if the phone location shows home. The person may roaming somewhere else. Is there a lack of intelligence in decision making??
