In a letter dated April 12, the District Magistrate had reportedly warned other departments about the incident. The authorities had realised about this event after finding out that one coronavirus positive individual was in touch with the Nalanda Markaz.

In the recent days, the man has reportedly visited several families in 4 villages and has been in close contact with dozens, all the while hiding his travel history or links with the Tablighi Jamaat.
