Prime Minister Narendra Modi wished well-being and speedy recovery of Congress leader Adhir Ranjan Chowdhury who tested positive for COVID-19 on Wednesday.
"Praying for the well-being and swift recovery of Adhir Da," tweeted Prime Minister Modi.
Earlier on Wednesday, Chowdhury took Twitter to inform about his COVID test report.
