People, for the most part, have not followed COVID protocols since the pandemic was unlocked over several stages. Even in Dimapur, the public has largely disobeyed the protocols, prompting district officials to order police to prosecute violators.

The COVID protocols have already been strictly enforced at the Dimapur airport.

However, there seem to be no checks at the railway station, including at the Dimapur inter-state check gates.

The state government, according to officials, has yet to issue a directive for enforcing the protocols at the railway station, checkpoints, and other entry-exit points.
