Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal has tested positive for Covid-19 and he is in self isolation at his official residence.
"I have tested positive for Covid-19 mild symptoms. Have isolated myself at home. Those who came in touch wid me in last few days, kindly isolate urself and get yourself tested (sic)," the Chief Minister tweeted on Tuesday morning.

Earlier in April 2020, Kejriwal's wife Sunita had tested positive for Covid-19 prompting Kejriwal to go into isolation. However, a test showed that he was negative for Covid-19.
Delhi, which is contemplating to upgrade it alert level from yellow to a higher one, is witnessing a surge in Covid-19 cases with Monday recording 4,099 cases and 6.46 per cent positivity rate.
