Rajasthan Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot and former Chief Minister Vasundhara Raje were tested positive on Tuesday for coronavirus. Gehlot, while informing the public that the number of COVID cases has increased in the past few days, said he too has tested positive for it. "I myself have been infected with mild symptoms of Covid. As per the advice of the doctors, I will continue working from my residence for the next few days. All of you should take care and follow Covid protocols," Gehlot tweeted. Raje in a tweet said she has isolated herself since testing positive. "My report has come positive in the Covid test. I am in complete isolation on the advice of doctors," Raje tweeted. "Those who came in contact with me should get themselves tested and take precautions," she advised. Seventeen new cases of COVID infection were reported in the state on Monday, with 189 people under care.

BJP MP Dushyant Singh on Monday said former Rajasthan chief minister Vasundhra Raje shares an emotional connect with people and nobody fears her. His remarks came after state Congress chief Govind Singh Dotasra said party leader Rahul Gandhi received a grand welcome from people in Jhalwar on Sunday despite there being fear of Raje. Singh, who is the son of Raje, said the former chief minister brought development to the area and promoted social harmony. Those who failed to bring even two people together in Rajasthan are today claiming to connect India, he said referring to the Bharat Jodo Yatra' led by Gandhi. Raje has continuously won from Jhalwar not because of fear but because of her emotional connect with the people and party workers, Singh said.
