Delhi BJP Chief Adesh Gupta is the latest politician to have tested positive for coronavirus. He took to Twitter to announce this.

"Last week I had a Covid test done after having a mild fever, the report of which was negative. Due to continuing to feel uncomfortable, I went for a corona test again which came out positive," tweeted Gupta. He added that he has been quarantined for the past one week. However, he has urged if someone has come in contact with him off late, they should get tested.

पिछले हफ्ते हल्का बुखार होने के बाद मैंने covid टेस्ट कराया था जिसकी रिपोर्ट negative थी, लगातार अस्वस्थ महसूस करने के कारण मैंने फिर से कोरोना का टेस्ट कराया जो positive आया है।

वैसे तो मैं पिछले 1 week से quarantine हूं फिर भी कोई मेरे संपर्क में आया हो तो वह अपनी जांच करा ले।

This is not the first coronavirus positive case being reported from Delhi BJP headquarter. Recently, after an employee was tested positive, a testing drive took place as a matter of precautions.

Those who were found to be in contact with any Covid patients are asked to be in isolation.
