The returnees were given a spare mask to wear all the time and a sanitiser to wash their hands.
"The luggage of all passengers was screened and disinfected before handing over to them after they completed formalities such as filling the self-declaration form and downloading of the Quarantine App for contact tracing later,” said the official.
The passengers were ferried from the airport in state-run buses in batches for 14-day institutional quarantine in hotels and resorts across the city.

There is no God but ALLAH and Muhammad pbuh is the final messenger of ALLAH....
Muslims should follow prophet Muhammad pbuh and follow the way prophet muhammad pbuh showed us... He never showed us to ASK with the DEAD. SO it wil be better to avoid asking with the dead if you fall in Doubt.
We Muslims believe ALLAH is ALL POWERFULL & ALL KNOWING and He is our PROTECTOR and Asking with the wali or dead person is not the way of our prophet. If U trust ALLAH, and THEN RELY on ALLAH and dont be in doubt that dead saints help comes... STOP this... ALLAH helps those who rely and depend on him...
To make YOUR imaan WEAK some so called DARGAH group may claim divinity to saints...
if U have any problem, Try to depend on ALLAH what QURAN teaches us.. & have Patience... U Will receive contentment & feel good When U depend on ALLAH alone... STOP goin or depending on DARGAH culture...
Fakirs are like Sanyasis or Babas of Hinduism. However, in Islam there is no \RAHABANIYAH\" OR fakir or sanyas. These Fakirs are of Sufism. Prophet Muhammad(Peace be upon him) lived like a Imam, Ruler, married man had a family and children. Where these Fakirs leave everything become Sanyasis. Actual word/meaning in Arabic is FUKURA (poor people) ."
Is there a faqir tribe in Islam...
Fight for masjid building where people don't have one for worship.not for these unislamic acts...
