CANBERRA, 07 May 2021 (TON): Australian Prime Minister Scott Morrison has announced lifting of ban on its citizens returning from coronavirus ravaged India from next week.
Prime Minister Scott Morrison took a decision to impose a biosecurity order last month barring all travel to and from India but had to take back due to heavy criticism from lawmakers and the Indian diaspora.
