A Tablighi Jamaat religious congregation that took place in Delhi's Nizamuddin Markaz Mosque in early March 2020 was a coronavirus super-spreader event with more than 1,000 confirmed cases[1] and at least 10 deaths linked to the event were reported across the country.[2] Over 9,000 missionaries may have attended the congregation, with the majority being from various states of India,[3][4] and 960 attendees from 40 foreign countries.[5] By 6 April, 1,445 out of 4,067 confirmed cases in 17 Indian states and union territories have been linked to this event, around a third of all cases.[6] A total of 22,000 people including Tablighi Jamaat members and their contacts have been quarantined across the country.[7]

Tablighi Jamaat has received widespread criticism from the Muslim community for holding the congregation despite a ban on public gatherings being issued by the Government of Delhi on 13 March.[8]

Event[edit]

The congregation took place at the Nizamuddin Markaz Masjid in March and had more than 9,000 attendees from various parts of the world. Many of the attendees reportedly travelled across the country for missionary work[9] and were scheduled to conduct Chilla, a preaching activity, in different states throughout the year. The event carried on, despite the Government of Delhi issuing a ban on all public gatherings on March 13, with over 2,000 participants present at the mosque on that date. According to the Home Ministry, there were 1,746 people in the Markaz on 21 March.[10]

On 24 March, the Jamaat approached the Nizamuddin police station after six participants tested positive for coronavirus.[10] By the time, thousands of attendees had already travelled by five trains to other parts of the country.[11] On 26 March, the first death linked to the event was reported in Srinagar, Jammu and Kashmir, a 65-year-old man who had tested positive on 24 March.[12] After a national lockdown went into effect on 25 March, more than 1,000 participants were stranded at the mosque, of whom as many as 300 showed symptoms of the virus. Local authorities began clearing the premises and cordoned off the Nizamuddin area.[13]

Spread[edit]

A cluster spread became apparent in the following days as cases traced back to the event were reported in several states. In Telangana, five people who attended the event died on 30 March. Dozens of people tested positive in other places such as Andhra Pradesh, Tamil Nadu, Uttar Pradesh and Andaman and Nicobar Islands. State governments scrambled to trace the whereabouts of the attendees.[14]

As of 3 April, more than 950 confirmed cases were detected across 14 states and union territories in the country, including 97 percent of the total cases confirmed in the country on 2 and 3 April (647 out of 664 cases).[15][16] Tamil Nadu was the worst affected state, as 364 of the 411 people who tested positive had attended the event.[17] 259 of the 386 cases in Delhi[18] and 140 of the 161 cases in Andhra Pradesh were linked to the event.[19] All nine deaths reported in Telangana until 2 April were of people who had returned from the congregation.[20]

The Srinagar man who died on 26 March was identified as a super-spreader as he travelled by road, rail and air from Delhi to Srinagar via Uttar Pradesh, as officials feared that he may have spread it to several people along the way.[21]

Tracing of attendees[edit]

By 2 April, Maharashtra, Telangana and Karnataka traced down 1,325, 1,064 and 800 attendees of the event respectively.[22][23][24] Tamil Nadu identified and quarantined 1,103 of the 1,500-odd participants from the state.[25] Andhra Pradesh reportedly detected around 800 of the 1,085 people of the state who attended the congregation.[26] Gujarat Police identified 72 attendees from the state who attended the event.[27] Uttar Pradesh managed to track and quarantine 1,205 people who participated in the congregation by 5 April.[28]

On 4 April, it was reported that the Delhi Police had found more than 500 foreign preachers "hiding in 16-17 places" in the city.[29]

Aftermath and action[edit]

The Union Home Ministry instructed state governments to track down the 824 foreign attendees of the congregation, asking them to screen, quarantine and deport such individuals.[30] On 2 April, the Home Ministry identified 960 foreigners who took part in the event and blacklisted their visas for violation of The Foreigners Act, 1946 and Disaster Management Act, 2005, and asked the DGPs of respective states and union territories to initiate legal action against them.[31]

Delhi government ordered an FIR against Muhammad Saad Kandhlawi, the head of Nizamuddin faction of the Tablighi Jamat.[32][33] After Kandhlawi and five associates named in the FIR went missing, Crime Branch began conducting raids on possible hideouts in Delhi and Uttar Pradesh.[34]

Delhi Police launched an investigation into a leaked audio clip in which Kandhlawi allegedly asked his followers "to not abide by government/medical guidelines with regards to the coronavirus outbreak." He was also heard saying, "This is not the time when you leave your prayers or meeting people just because doctors are saying. When Allah has given this disease, then no doctor or medicine can save us."[35] A day later, Kandhlawi released an audio message on YouTube from his hiding, saying, "I am in self-quarantine in Delhi as advised by the doctors and appeal to all Jamaat wherever they are in the country to follow the directives of the law."[36]

According to reports, around 160 attendees who were quarantined at a railway facility in Delhi "misbehaved" and "spat on" doctors and healthcare personnel who were attending to them. They also allegedly raised objection to the food served and roamed around the facility in violation of the norms of the isolation ward.[37] Attendees quarantined at a facility in Ghaziabad reportedly roamed around naked in the facility and made lewd comments and directed vulgar signs at the nurses.[38][39] Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath condemned the actions, called the patients "enemies of humanity" and invoked the National Security Act against them.[40] In Bihar, stones were pelted at police officers who had gone for tracking Tablighi Jamaat attendees.[41]

On 6 April, news sources reported that some television anchors and journalists were being threatened by Tablighi Jamaat members for covering the "role of Tablighi Jamaat in the spread of coronavirus."[42]

Administration of TJ had said they are willing to dispatch hundreds of missionary to their respective nation & states but as the lockdown is in place they are helpless.[43][44][45]

Cases linked[edit]

According health authorities, until 2 April, among 2000 positive cases in India nearly 400 cases epidemiological linkage can be traced to the Tablighi Jamaat cluster.[46][47] By 3 April, 647 cases are reported which are related to this cluster.[48] By 4 April, 1,023 cases with links to this cluster were reported which is about 30% of total cases in the country.[49]
