A housekeeping staff delivering food to quarantined guests in Park Inn by Radisson Amritsar

Veer Arjun Singh New Delhi
A bus drove through the gates of Park Inn by Radisson Amritsar with a convoy of cars. The guests stepped out of the bus and formed a single file. A strict distance between them revealed the unusual circumstances of their arrival. Not in the company of family and friends, the 29 individuals were instead led by a team of doctors and police personnel. The doorman was absent and so were the bellboys.
 
An unmanned elevator was reserved for the guests —  a mix of Indian and international tourists who were believed to be at a medium-to-high risk of being infected.
