According to latest information, the district magistrate of DehraDun has announced that a negative RT-PCR test is mandatory for travellers visiting Mussoorie. The test should not be more than 72 hours old.

The administration has also put a cap on the number of visitors who will be allowed to visit the region during weekends.

Media reports quoting the Standard Operating Procedure said that only 15,000 travellers will be allowed into Mussoorie during the weekends.

During the festive season, Mussoorie  not only receives a large number of visitors from Delhi but from West Bengal and other states as well.
