The Tripura administration has initiated a mask enforcement drive in Agartala to curb COVID-19 spread, urging residents to wear masks in public spaces.
The Tripura government has rolled out a mask enforcement drive in the capital city of Agartala, aiming to reduce the spread of COVID-19.
The campaign began on Monday, with officials visiting key markets, transport hubs and public parks to remind citizens of the mask mandate.
Authorities have announced that non‑compliance will attract fines and, in repeated cases, temporary suspension of business licenses. They also plan to distribute free masks to vulnerable groups.
Health officials say the drive will help maintain the state's low infection rates and encourage a culture of preventive behaviour among residents.
