The last few days have seen a record increase in the number of corona patients in Maharashtra.Amid the rising covid cases, BJP leader and Leader of Opposition Devendra Fadnavis has targeted the Mahavikas Aghadi government in the state, saying that the state should use its full potential by increasing the number of corona tests in the near future.
