Now, however, the new variant of the Corona, Omicron, has once again caused panic around the world. Preventive measures have been taken in the state to prevent the outbreak of this new Corona variant. Also, all the necessary measures are being taken in Mumbai. Against this backdrop, Mumbai Mayor Kishori Pednekar suddenly visited Mumbai International Airport around midnight and took stock of the situation.
