Covid testing done at Margao station a thorough job

While the 15 passengers from Goa alighted at the Margao railway station, around 33 passengers boarded the Rajdhani at the station for their onward journey to Kerala.

The district authorities made elaborate arrangements for the Kerala-bound passengers at the entrance to the railway station. While senior officer Uday Prabhudesai was closely monitoring the situation, Joint Mamlatdar Quepem Rosario Fernandes was seeking details of the passengers heading to their native state.

While a total of 34 passengers were scheduled to leave for Kerala from Margao, 33 passengers boarded the Rajdhani while a lone passenger is believed to have cancelled the ticket.

After the passengers reported at the station, a health team stationed outside subjected them to thermal screening, before giving them the nod to embark for the train journey.
