Flight Attendant Quarantined By Govt, Harassed By RWA: COVID-19 Brings Out Middle-Class India’s Worst Impulses

Ever since the Delhi government marked her house with a quarantine sticker, S, a flight attendant, says that she has been harassed by her neighbours, who are lying about her having COVID-19 and demanding that she leave their locality.


A photo of the quarantine sticker with her personal details has been circulated on her locality’s Residential Welfare Association (RWA) WhatsApp group, she said, and a video in which she is identified by her name and falsely called COVID-19 positive is also doing the rounds.


While neighbours have approached the Delhi Police twice in two days to get her evicted, S, who lives with her younger brother, said that people have refused to come to her house to make essential deliveries like water.


“This drama started after the government put up that poster,” she said, referring to the sticker that says “Don’t visit” and bears her name, address and the time period of the quarantine.


“My safety and my image are under attack. People are saying that I’m corona-positive and humiliating me. One can’t live like this. Society will boycott you if they think you are corona-positive.”
