Inter-provincial travel restrictions to be lifted
On-going interprovincial travel restrictions will be lifted at 4.00 a.m. on 31 October, Army Commander General Shavendra Silva said.
He said the decision was made at a meeting of the COVID-19 Prevention Task Force under the patronage of President Gotabaya Rajapaksa.
Although the quarantine curfew was lifted, the authorities had decided to continue interprovincial travel restrictions hoping to control leisure travel between the provinces.
