How did #Lakshadweep register it's first Covid case?


1. Last month new administrator, a BJP person, is posted at Lakshadweep (Praful Patel, from Gujarat).He travelled to Lakshadweep without following any SOP (Standard Operating Procedure) norms.


2. People reacted; sent complaints to Union Home Secretary, President. A furious administration replaced old SOP (Standard Operating Procedure) with a new one. New SOP came to effect on December 28. According to this, only a negative test result obtained within 48 hrs of travel is required to travel to Lakshadweep.


3. No quarantine either at Kochi (from where flights and boats operate) or Lakshadweep. People organized a protest against new SOP, 30 people including ladies were attested and held 10 days in a jail. Yes, 10 days in a jail because the administrator wanted it so.

Hundreds of Islanders protesting against the new SOP at Kavaratti Island.


 4. So, who's the first Covid positive case? Well, you guessed it right! He's from the mainland (India)! A cook with IRB, who travelled to Kavaratti under the new SOP!
