Actor Gauahar Khan has run herself into quite some trouble. According to a report in ETimes, Gauahar has been moved to institutional quarantine. Gauahar Khan is likely to be kept in institutional quarantine at least till March 24. Earlier, it was reported that an FIR has been lodged against the actress for flouting COVID-19 quarantine rules after testing positive for the deadly virus. She then responded to the claims. Taking to her Instagram stories, Gauahar made a post and wrote, “Truth Shall Prevail”.

According to a report in ETimes, a BMC official revealed that Gauahar Khan will have to stay in institutional quarantine till March 24. The official mentioned that the actress will have to undergo a test only then, if she tests negative, she can walk out free. The official said, “On the 13th or 14th day, she will be made to undergo a RT-PCR test and only if that is negative, she can walk out free." The BMC official added, “Why don't people seem to understand the basics needed? The government is shouting hoarse but so many people are still not wearing masks. As for Gauahar, she might have been taken by surprise when the BMC checked to find out if she's at home- but that's a normal procedure."

The BMC official in the report said that Gauahar Khan shouldn’t have moved out of her house if and when she got her negative report on March 12. The official explained how it is strongly recommended that the person infected with the virus needs to isolate himself for the next 14 days from the day he/she tests positive. The official said, “So what if she has a report dated March 12 that says 'negative'? It is strongly recommended that the infected person needs to isolate himself for the next 14 days from the day he/she tests positive. Therefore, if Gauahar's report was first positive on March 11, she should have shut herself up separately till March 24. But she didn't do that, and that's where her offence lies."
