The conference by the Tablighi Jamaat was held at a mosque in Nizamuddin, New Delhi. As of April 1, there have been 105 cases of the coronavirus in Karnataka.

A new cluster of cases have been reported in Mysuru district's Nanjangud. A man working in the Quality Assessment department of a pharmaceutical company tested positive, and shortly afterwards, several of his colleagues also tested positive for COVID-19.
