This year, wearing a mask has been made compulsory for all visitors and exhibitors. COVID-19 protocols like hand-sanitizer, temperature checks, etc. are in place.
I saw volunteers near the entrance having a bunch of masks. So even if you go there without one, maybe you can request them to give or sell masks to you. Kindly make sure to follow social distancing norms.
Like every year, this year too they are organizing informative programmes and contests. For details about these events, visit BAPASI home page.
