This is the second time he has been infected with coronavirus.

In a tweet, he confirmed that his Covid test showed positive result.

Pawar said, “I have tested positive for Covid-19, but my health is fine. I am consulting a doctor. With your blessings, I will soon defeat it and return to your service."
