New Delhi :239 out of 548 people who have died of coronavirus pandemic in Maharashtra are Muslims as of May 3. It makes 44 per cent of total number of deaths while Muslims are less than 12 per cent in the state.
Noticing the gravity of the situation the state epidemiology department has planned to launch Covid-19 awareness messages in Urdu in select hotspots with the help of religious leaders, said a report published in The Indian Express.
State officials and experts point to several reasons behind this: curbs on travellers from the Gulf came as late as mid-March; Friday prayers in many mosques continued until March 20; a significant share of the community lives in neighbourhoods where social distancing is difficult, population density is high, and access to healthcare poor.
Incidentally, only 69 Covid positive cases in Maharashtra were traced to the Tablighi Jamaat event in New Delhi. The lone death in the state linked to the Tablighi event was that of a Filipino national on March 22. By contrast, at the last count (April 18), the number of positive cases linked to the Nizamuddin superspreader group countrywide was 4,291.
“A lot of people working (in the Gulf) returned home and were missed during airport screening. That was a game-changer. We noticed that several of them, although asymptomatic, spread infection in community,” state epidemiologist Pradeep Awate said.
The state public health department has roped in mosques and local Maulanas to relay Covid awareness messages in Urdu to community. “We are now trying to look for local popular figures who can act as messengers and disseminate information about the disease locally. We will soon issue awareness messages in Urdu in hotspots like Malegaon and Mumbai to reach out to minority,” said Awate.
Why it spread in China while no tableeghi jamaat went there
It spread everywhere but tabligi jamat accelarated it in india.
really what about elections and kumbmela and holi?
when jamat was there– no guidelines were specified but 2021 kumbh mela guidelines were also there and elections what lakhs were there is that okay? stop this stupid blame game and look at graveyards and smashan bhumi…stop hatred and support protecting people
India me toh unhone hi failaya hai ab keha gaya allah bachane wala us time toh tum bhot bolte the
Just they are targeting Muslim
Because of strict lockdown
that was the most stupid question, I could read ever.. The answer is that Corona virus was developed in a lab there and it broke out without people knowing it.
I can guess, your religion from your questions 🙂
millions of muslims will get corona. they should move into mosques-
hindus should not interfere-
True
Learn to live harmoniously. Corona knows no religion and country.
And 56% remaining are Hindus who died of COVID 19
In covid also they look Hindu Muslim…what a irony..this community is really a ars hill..
they won’t tell you that out of total 46,601 people who have died in India till date of writing this comment 65-70% percent of them are Hindus. So all my Hindu brother’s and sisters please take care and spread awareness we can not loose number like this and let these scavengers become majority. World knows what happens to minorities under a Muslim dominant country.
Some religious leaders gave impression to faithfulls that if they pray to allah sincerly nothing will happen to them and only those Muslims who aṛe not pure Muslims will die because allah wishes so. Corona does not bother which faith you are from and it seems that all gods of all religions are keeping quiet .
CORONA never affected Muslims.
😂😂😂 Then who are these 44% who died of Corona?
They are not Muslim as per his madarsa teaching
After this corona gets over….I’m leaving this country India once and for all, first I was so great full for the title “INDIAN”..Now I’m ashamed…! And the reason behind it was not because of Hindu, Muslim, or Christian but because of my fellow “INDIANS”…..!
this is fake data
