The Kerala Government has announced that the tourists and travellers planning to visit the state during Onam 2021 will be welcomed with open arms if they are fully vaccinated against COVID-19. The announcement was made in the state assembly on Monday, August 2, by Tourism Minister P A Mohamed Riyas. Various tourist hotspots across Kerala will be open for the fully vaccinated domestic tourists and travellers during the Onam festival beginning August 12.
