Some members of the Islamic missionary sect Tablighi Jamaat, which organised a religious gathering in Delhi linked to hundreds of coronavirus cases, face charges under the tough National Security Act (NSA) after allegations of assault on nurses and obscene behavior at a hospital in Ghaziabad, Uttar Pradesh. After the hospital's complaint to the police, Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath has ordered charges under the law that allows detention without charges for up to a year if the accused are seen to threaten public order.
