Tamil Nadu e-registration online: Tamil Nadu government has extended the lockdown till June 14 to curb the spread of Covid-19. As per the latest guidelines, e-registration is mandatory for both inter and intra-district travel and for those entering Tamil Nadu from other states/countries.
As the Tamil Nadu government extended the lockdown till June 14, some of the districts with low test positivity rates will see quite a few relaxations. But for 11 districts — Coimbatore, Nilgris, Tiruppur, Erode, Salem, Karur, Namakkal, Thanjavur, Tiruvarur, Nagapattinam and Mayiladuthurai — the relaxations are minimal.
