India Travel Advice

⬤ Exercise a high degree of caution

We continue to advise exercise a high degree of caution in India. Curfews and restrictions continue in parts of Manipur following violent demonstrations, resulting in casualties. Security agencies have increased their presence in the region. Mobile internet and transport services continue to be affected. 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 (see 'Safety'). We advise: Exercise a high degree of caution in India overall due to the threat of terrorism and crime and the risk of civil unrest. Higher levels apply in some areas.
