323 Indians were evacuated from Wuhan, the centre of the coronavirus outbreak, and were brought to Delhi via an Air India flight. Wuhan is currently going through food shortages and an “overwhelming” number of patients, reports Business Insider. At first, all 323 were screened for symptoms at the Indira Gandhi International Airport and later taken to two quarantine facilities set up by the Indian Army and the Indo-Tibetan Border Police, one in Delhi and the other in Haryana’s Manesar, reports Hindustan Times.
According to a report by The Indian Express, a group of Indians dancing and celebrating at one of the quarantine camps has gone viral. The video was shared by Air India spokesperson Dhananjay Kumar. Everyone can be seen wearing face-protection masks while they dance to a popular Haryanvi song.
