A strict “ten-day Corona curfew” is in place in Himachal Pradesh, the seat of the Tibetan Government-in-Exile, home to HH the Dalai Lama and to many exile Tibetans, in the face of a surge in the number of Covid-19 cases. Towns are deserted; Government offices and schools are closed but essential services will remain open. Anyone entering the state must show a negative test result.
