Punjab blames Maha for Covid +ve pilgrims, latter says it’s ‘not our fault’

The complexities involved in evacuating thousands of migrants across state borders are beginning to sink in. Maharashtra on Friday sealed areas around Nanded’s Takht Hazoor Sahib after Punjab saw a huge spike in cases with 215 pilgrims, who had visited the shrine, testing positive. The Punjab govt, however, is unhappy that pilgrims were not tested in Maharashtra.
