In a communication to Chief Secretaries of all States today, the Union Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA) referred to reports that that local level restrictions on movement were being imposed by various districts/States. “Such restrictions are creating problems in inter-State movement of goods and services and are impacting the supply chain, resulting in disruption of economic activities and employment, besides affecting supply of goods and services,” it stated.
