Kanika has been hitting the headlines ever since she tested positive for the disease earlier in March. She was criticized for attending parties and allegedly spreading the novel virus.
Lucknow police also booked her on charges of negligence for attending various social events in the city despite being infected with coronavirus. She alleged that she was being treated ‘like a criminal’ at the hospital, following which, the hospital released a statement asking the singer to behave like a patient and not throw ‘tantrums of a star’.
Many political leaders who met the singer in Uttar Pradesh went in for self-isolation post her diagnosis.
