When organizations like WHO are asking people to maintain hygiene, public quarantine facilities seem to be neglecting the same. The proofs are these videos and pictures if quarantine facilities in Delhi being shared by people online.

Besides students, many more people, who have been quarantined across India, also shared pictures snd videos of the filthy state of quarantine facilities.
