The number of new corona cases in Maharashtra is increasing day by day. 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. Fadnavis also said that lockdown is not the only way to control the prevalence of corona, but 'test, trace and treat' is the most effective way to prevent corona.

"State is doing 90 thousand tests on a daily basis! Increase the number of tests, this is the best way to prevent corona. Maharashtra had to wait for the second wave of corona to go to 1 lakh daily tests," tweeted Fadnavis.

The second tweet states the formula for increasing corona tests. "An average of 1,26,950 tests are being performed daily in the last 10 days. Anyway, keep this formula for now!
