“The alleged misbehaviour of Tablighi Jamaat members has contributed to the spread of the coronavirus infection in the country. This order is not valid for Muslim healthcare professionals, police and people who do not live in Muslim-populated areas,” the advertisement said. The case has also been registered against the hospital.

Also, a government-run hospital in Ahmedabad, the main city in the western Indian state of Gujarat, has been segregating coronavirus patients based on their religion. It is done as per the order from the Indian government.

The Medical Superintendent of the hospital Dr. Gunvant H Rathod said the decision to segregate the patients along religious lines was made as per a state government instruction.
