New Delhi: On Saturday, Delhi's international airport witnessed chaotic scenes as large crowds of passengers who'd arrived on international flights were subjected to long hours of waiting for the mandatory screening for the novel coronavirus, or Covid-19, before the authorities let them exit the premises.

Several passengers took to social media to share their ordeal.

A Twitter user, Chaitanya Kabra said, "This is what is happening at Delhi airport. We landed at 7 am today and were made to stand in a long que for temperature checks. After that, we were made to sit in arrival hall for three hours."
