Covid-19: Karnataka Congress leader Siddaramaiah tests positive, Tripura CM goes into self isolation
Senior Congress leader and former Karnataka Chief Minister Siddaramaiah on Tuesday said that he has tested positive for the coronavirus.
“I have been tested positive for Covid-19 and also been admitted to the hospital on the advice of doctors as a precaution,” the Congress leader wrote on Twitter. “I request all those who had come in contact with me to check out for symptoms and to quarantine themselves.”
On Monday, six staff members of Karnataka Chief Minister BS Yediyurappa’s office had tested positive for the coronavirus. The chief minister himself tested positive for the infection on Sunday.
Yediyurappa was in self-quarantine twice last month after some of his staff members were found to have contracted the infection. He had also stopped going to the Vidhana Soudha and had been holding meetings from his residence.
