Punjab Chief Minister Capt Amarinder Singh has decided to go on a seven-day self quarantine, as per government protocol and the advise of his doctors. ‘
This comes after two MLAs who met him in the Vidhan Sabha tested positive for COVID-19.
Kulbir Singh Zira and Nirmal Singh Shutrana, both representing the ruling party, attended the session on Friday and were later tested positive for coronavirus.
While Shutrana had not interacted much with other members in the House and had left in 15 minutes of the start of the Session, Zira was seen among the MLAs and was also in close vicinity of the Chief Minister.
Panic gripped all 55 MLAs and Ministers, besides the staff of the Vidhan Sabha, after the reports of the two MLAs testing positive spread.
