Bharat Chavan from Bharatiya Janata Party and Mukund Keni from Nationalist Congress party are asymptomatic patients.

Keni said, “I have constantly been working with the people and have tested positive. I will get well soon and will be back among the people to serve them.”

Keni was admitted to a hospital in Thane.

Chavan was admitted to a hospital in Mumbai. “Since the virus outbreak, I was on the field helping people in my ward.”

The political parties alleged that it was difficult to get a bed for them in a private hospital.

A TMC official said, “Both of them have tested positive. We have stopped providing beds for asymptomatic patients. But, we will inquire the reason for their problem.”

A woman corporator from TMC had tested positive last month.
