Controversies
2019–2020 coronavirus pandemic
Nizamuddin faction of the Tablighi Jamaat held a religious congregational program in Nizamuddin West, Delhi from 13 to 15 March 2020[1][2] even when there was a ban from the Delhi government for gatherings with more than 200 persons. There were also other violation of rules by foreign speakers including misuse of tourist visa for missionary activities and not taking 14-day home quarantine for travellers from abroad[3]. It is suspected that some of these speakers were infected by the Coronavirus which later spread to the congregants. Many had travelled back to their states and also provided refuge to foreign speakers without the knowledge of local governments[4] and eventually started local transmissions especially in Tamil Nadu, Telengana, Karnataka, Jammu and Kashmir and Assam.
