In order to prevent unwanted pregnancies, the Bihar government is distributing free condoms to migrant labourers going home after completing 14-day institutional quarantine and those in-home quarantines. As of now, over 8.77 lakh people have left quarantine facilities, while 5.30 lakh are still living in block and district centres. Officials said "it is purely a family planning measure and has nothing to do with COVID-19."
