The number of cases in the country witnessed a surge in the last week as hundreds tested positive after attending a religious gathering held by the Tablighi Jamaat in Delhi's Nizamuddin last month.

The state governments have since then been tracing those who attended the event and the people they came in contact with.

As part of measures to curb the spread of the highly contagious coronavirus, the country is currently under a 21-day nationwide lockdown with today being the twelfth day.
