Garhshankar (Hoshiarpur), April 26
Sixteen persons from village Moranwali, one of the coronavirus hotspots in Garhshankar, returned from Maharashtra’s Nanded Sahib on Saturday night.
Immediately after their arrival in the village, they were screened by a health department team and were quarantined in their homes as a precautionary measure. Their samples for the Covid-19 test will likely be taken by Monday.
The group had gone to Nanded in a rented mini-bus on March 18. After being stuck there for almost a month due to lockdown, they got the necessary permission to return to Punjab two days ago.
