Starting Wednesday, those travelling within the state won't require an e-pass or travel permit anymore, according to the state governments Unlock 4.0 guidelines issued on Monday. The state government lifted the restrictions on movement of people and goods between districts and states by doing away with the mandatory e-pass or government permit requirement.
For the fourth phase of Mission Begin Again, passenger movement by private buses/minibuses and other commercial public carriers has also been allowed under the Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) to be issued by the Transport Department. The state-owned public transport resumed last month, but private operators were losing on their income because of the bar.
