Anyone with a travel history in China since January 15, 2020 could be quarantined, the ministry said on February 2, adding that the rule would apply to current and future travel to China.
India has reported three coronavirus cases as of February 3. The national helpline for information and assistance related to the virus threat is 011-23978046.
