Maharashtra has SOPs mandating Covid-19 negative certificates for air/rail passengers from four states, including Goa. All the other three States are in the grip of rising positive cases. Delhi Health Minister says the State is in the grip of a third wave. One might question why Goa is included in the list by Maharashtra? That is because everybody can get hurt very badly by Covid and everyone knows that Goa is open to passengers from all over India with no restrictions and that all such people do not even wear masks. So, Maharashtra knows the repercussions of this. Everyone knows but Goa! Everyone knows that Goans are at very high risk, except the Goa government. And everyone knows the volume of people coming to Goa these months and that the fines for not wearing masks and other SOPs are on paper alone.
