Rajasthan eases curbs, but makes at least one COVID shot mandatory to enter public places from 28 June

The Rajasthan Government on Saturday issued new COVID-19 guidelines, making it mandatory for people to have at least one dose of COVID-19 vaccine to enter public places. The new rules will come to effect from 28 June across the state.

The new rules have eased several restrictions on the movement of people as well as economic activities, including allowing 100 percent staffing in government offices, provided at least 60 percent of them are vaccinated. The vaccination-driven policy also applies to shops, eateries, gyms, clubs, malls and other establishments.

Religious places will start to open conditionally while marriage palaces can open from 1 July for holding marriage events.

The new guideline, issued by the Home Department as a three-layered public-discipline 3.0 will be applicable from 28 June.

What's allowed in Rajasthan from 28 June

  • Govt offices: According to the guidelines, government offices will now be able to open till 6 pm. In all such government offices where the number of personnel is less than 25, full staff will be allowed whereas in offices where the number of personnel is 25 or more than 25, 50 percent personnel will be allowed. In such offices, where 60 percent of the personnel have received the first dose of the vaccine, 100 percent of the personnel will be allowed, the new guidelines provided, adding that the office hours will be from 9.30 am to 6 pm.
