The principal secretary at Bihar’s Disaster Management Authority has said that they will close registration on Monday evening. He said, “In any case, maximum people have returned”.Bihar deputy CM Sushil Kumar Modi said, “Foreign experts have concluded that home quarantine is the best quarantine.”Thermal screening at railway stations is also set to be discontinued. Opposition parties criticised the state government’s decision. “All those coming back now would mingle with the population and would further threaten to spread infection,” said AICC secretary Chandan Yadav.Tejashwi Yadav of the RJD said, “When people have been dying of COVID infection and hunger and are still walking back home, the NDA has been thinking of election in Bihar. The BJP is planning a digital rally on June 9. This alone shows the insensitivity of the state government.”
