The Administration of Pathanamthitta district in Kerala has launched a vehicle called ‘Tiranga’ (Total India Remote Analysis Nirogya Abhiyaan) for rapid screening of COVID-19 symptoms. The vehicle is provided with thermal scanning, an infrared thermometer mounted on the bonnet, a two-way microphone system by which individuals inside and out of doors the vehicle can ask one another, a mobile camera which will click photos of their identity cards.

The vehicle has been painted with tricolour so that people would immediately recognise it as an initiative of the government and leave the health workers alone. The screening will be done in containment zones and buffer zones and in the camps for migrant workers and destitute people.
