There were 42 people in the bus that reached Parsa on March 27. Six of them were Indian nationals, five were from Jagannath and two were from Dhovini village. But Jagannath and Dhovini did not take their citizens.

Throat swabs of 62 people in quarantine were collected and sent to the National Public Health Laboratory, Teku. Of them, 14 came positive. “There were no symptoms during the quarantine,” said Gupta. “We have received positive reports from 11 villagers, two from Dhovini and one from India.”
