India withdraws tit-for-tat Covid advisory for UK travellers

The government has reinstated its earlier guidelines by withdrawing a travel advisory issued on October 1 that made it mandatory for British nationals arriving in India to undergo a mandatory 10-day quarantine even if they are fully vaccinated. India had come out with the advisory as UK, even after recognising Covishield vaccine produced by the Serum Institute of India, retained the 10-day quarantine period for fully vaccinated travellers from India.
