Maharashtra minister for Higher Education Uday Samant took to Twitter on Tuesday to inform that he has tested coronavirus positive.
"I am in isolation for the last ten days. I have not been in contact with anyone in the last 10 days so the chances of the virus being spread are very low."
"On getting the initial symptoms of COVID 19, I got myself tested and the report came back positive," said Samant.
