Remain on high alert at all times. Stay safe, monitor local media and follow instructions from all local officials.
Your safety is at risk.

You should think about your need to travel to this country, region or area based on family or business needs, knowledge. If you’re already there, think about whether you really need to be there. If you don’t need to stay there, you should think about leaving India. The advisory also suggested citizens living in India “consider leaving the country if it is safe to do so”.
