Aussies are being asked to reconsider their need to travel to a part of the world where violence is rising and order is breaking down.
Smart Traveller, the government’s travel advisory body, has recommended travellers “reconsider” their need to visit Manipur, a northeastern Indian border state plagued by ethnic clashes since May.
“Further restrictions may be imposed at short notice. If you‘re in Manipur, avoid demonstrations and large public gatherings, follow the advice of local authorities, take official warnings seriously and monitor local media for updates.”The August 14 update means India’s northeastern states of Assam, Nagaland and Manipur are now listed with the third-highest travel warning, which advises Australians to reconsider their need to travel there.
The government has also updated its travel advice for the US, asking travellers to reconsider any immediate plans to travel to Maui following the outbreak of wildfires.
