Kohima: Following a Public Interest Litigation (PIL) in the Kohima Bench of Gauhati High Court, the Nagaland government has revoked its decision to stop the salaries of employees at the civil secretariat and directorates who have not been vaccinated against COVID-19. Testing for its employees attending office will also be free.
The Nagaland government had earlier notified that salaries of those who have not taken a single dose of the vaccine against coronavirus or who fail to furnish COVID-19 negative test report will be stopped beyond July 31.
While unvaccinated employees are required to produce COVID-19 negative test report by getting tested every 15 days through either RT-PCR/TrueNat/CBNAAT for attending office, the government has now made it free for its employees at the Government testing facilities.
