Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], Mar 12 (ANI): BJP MLA Yogesh Sagar on Thursday came to the Vidhan Bhawan wearing a mask as a precautionary measure against novel coronavirus.
"Two new cases of coronavirus have been found in Mumbai. As the Assembly session is on, many people come to the Vidhan Bhawan including media personnel. So, people are at high risk. Therefore, I would advise them also to wear a mask. I request the government to distribute masks to people," Sagar said while speaking to reporters.
In the wake of rising coronavirus cases in Maharashtra, the ongoing Assembly session has been curtailed by six days. The budget session of Assembly will now conclude on March 14 instead of its scheduled date of March 20.
Earlier on Wednesday, Maharashtra Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray confirmed 10 positive cases of coronavirus in the state so far, including eight positive cases in Pune.
"Among the 10 cases, eight are from Pune and two from Mumbai," Thackeray told reporters. (ANI)
