She is right here. When Kanika landed there were no orders of self isolating. It is too much to expect people isolating themselves when they were not made aware of risk and asked by authority. And it is also true that people were playing holi. Yes many big events got cancelled but many also happened.
The self isolation really started around 14-15th March. Even in UK it started around that time. Are we really going to blame Kanika for this? She should not be made a scapegoat at this point. She herself got infected and let’s pray for her.
There were less than 100 cases on 9th March when she landed and some 4-5 deaths. Indian governemnt did not tell people returning form UK to self isolate.
Could you clarify this for me? Wasn't the self isolation YOU'RE talking about meant for those within the nation? Weren't the people who traveled from one of the places with high numbers of cases to be screened on arrival? Didn't the singer hide in the airport bathroom to escape screening? Why would she do that if she weren't aware (MADE aware by authorities as you said) that if she screened positive she WOULD have to be isolated?
Oh, no. She doesn't get to escape blame by fudging one type of isolation with the other. Nor does Sonam.
