New Delhi: The Himachal Pradesh government on Tuesday allowed inter-state travel without an e-pass after shutting borders for more than five months due to the ongoing coronavirus pandemic. the state cabinet has, however, decided not to resume inter-state transport buses as of now.
Last month, Himachal Pradesh had relaxed lockdown norms for tourists and allowed a streamlined interstate movement with e-passes in efforts to revive the tourism industry, the biggest profit-making sector of the state.

Notably, the Himalayan state recorded eight more deaths to the viral infection, pushing the COVID death toll to 89, while the positive count mounted to 10,060 with 143 fresh cases being reported today morning.
Of the new cases, 76 were reported from Mandi, 30 from Kangra, 12 from Sirmaur, eight from Shimla, seven from Kullu, five from Chamba, four from Bilaspur and one from Hamirpur, Special Secretary, Health, Nipun Jindal told PTI.
