In Hyderabad, 1,600 Rohingya families are living in 22 refugee camps on the city outskirts at Balapur, Shaheennagar, Jalpally and Pahadishareef.
"For the last 2 days around 15-20 members have been taken by the police and the medical staff after identifying their travel history to North India.
They were let off after stamping them a 'Home Quarantine'," Bilal Hussain, a leader of camp in Balapur said.
At another camp, police and medical staff called all the Rohingyas from different camps for a meeting at a function hall and asked them to inform if any was showing symptoms Coronavirus or if anyone had any travel history.
Mohammed Hussain, another camp leader who attended the meeting, said that he had provided a list of people who had a travel history, some of whom attended Tablighi Jamaat's congregation at Mewat in Haryana.
However, the leaders of the camps are not sure if any of the men in the list had attended Tabligh's Delhi meeting.
"The police and the medical team is also visiting the camps and conducting them medical check-ups and providing food," he added.
