The Additional Chief Secretary of the Home Department issued an order on Tuesday, distinguishing population categories who are permitted to travel without the special provision of an e-pass. The list includes:

People involved in industrial activities
Travel for medical/essential good or services and transportation of essential goods
People working in medical, healthcare and industrial units
People involved in e-commerce operations
People facing medical emergencies
Telecommunication and postal services
Personnel related to print and electronic media
People involved in internet services

All other categories need to get an e-pass from the designated authorities before travel. These can be procured from the portal of the e-pass management system. Reportedly, the validity of the pass will last for one day for intra-district travel and will be issued by the SDM after verification of documents. The validity of the pass will be extended for two days for inter-district travel and will be awarded by the Additional District Magistrate. The permission for inter-state travel would be granted by the District Magistrate.
