An all party meeting was held on Wednesday in which opposition leaders raised the issue of paid quarantine for expatriates coming from abroad.
Vijayan said "there was no need for any anxiety on the matter.The poor will not face any difficulty and the quarantine fee will be charged from only those who can afford it."
Some people from abroad are planning to charter flights to bring stranded expatriates, he said.
"We don't have any problem with that.But we need to be informed to make arrangements for them," Vijayan added.
The Chief Minister described as "baseless" reports that due to the government denying permission, chartered flights were not being operated.
