Just one factual correction: There was no lockdown when people gathered there.
The Tablighi Jamaat congregation was organised between 1st Mar- 15th Mar.
There was no strict advisory by the govt too. In fact, there were few travel restrictions.

What were these people gathering at Nizamuddin thinking? Is it a joke that the entire country is under lockdown? One wrong action by anyone of us can lead to a disaster of gigantic proportions!
Listen to the Government for heaven’s sake!
