Based on the report of the empowered authority, and preliminary enquiry by police, a case was registered against the defaulter under Sections 188 and 271 of the IPC at Dhanupali police station, sources said.
All foreign-returned individuals are required to undergo 14 days of self-isolation after registering on the Odisha government COVID-19 portal, as a preventive measure against the spread of the deadly virus.
