In view of the increasing number of Covid-19 cases, the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation has made RT-PCR COVID-19 test report mandatory for people entering the shopping malls in Mumbai, according to some media reports.
The new rule will come into effect from March 22.
If visitors don't have a negative COVID-19 test report, they will have to get a Rapid Antigen Test done at the entrance of the shopping mall.
"A team will be designated at the entrance for this very purpose. The details are being worked out," the Mumbai civic body said.
Officials said that this step will help in increasing the number of coronavirus tests and also track positive patients rapidly.
