Former Maharashtra minister and senior Nationalist Congress Party leader Chhagan Bhujbal on Tuesday said he has tested positive for COVID-19.
Earlier, he had contracted the viral infection when the pandemic was at its peak.
The NCP leader shared on Twitter the news about his health.
He was recently on a tour of Yeola, his assembly constituency in Nashik district.
Bhujbal said he had a fever when he was returning to Nashik from Yeola.
He underwent a test for coronavirus on Monday which came positive.
The NCP leader appealed to all those who had come in contact with him in the past 2-3 days to go for COVID tests if they have symptoms like fever, breathing difficulties, runny nose and a sore throat.
The ex-minister also urged citizens to wear a mask and use hand sanitisers. -- PTI
