Residents of a quarantine centre in Bihar were filmed standing in neat rows to maintain social distancing while dancing. A video of the activity - conducted to lift spirits and cheer inmates up as they isolate away from their families - has won hearts on social media.
In the video, residents of the Juafar Quarantine Centre in Siwan, Bihar, were filmed dancing to 'Sandese Aate Hai' from the 1997 film Border.
