New Delhi: Union Defence Minister Rajnath Singh's son and Gautam Buddha Nagar MLA Pankaj Singh is the latest BJP lawmaker to have tested corona positive.

"I am hospitalised on the advice of doctors. I request all those who have come in contact with me in the last few days, to please isolate yourself and get yourself tested," he said late on Monday night.

  • कोरोना के शुरूआती लक्षण दिखने पर मैंने टेस्ट करवाया और रिपोर्ट पॉजिटिव आई है। डॉक्टर्स की सलाह पर अस्पताल में भर्ती हुआ हूँ। मेरा अनुरोध है कि आप में से जो भी लोग गत कुछ दिनों में मेरे संपर्क में आयें हैं, कृपया स्वयं को आइसोलेट कर अपनी जाँच करवाएं।
