Union Minister Smriti Irani has tested positive for Covid-19, she tweeted on Wednesday.

The MP from Amethi has requested those who came in her contact to get a Covid test at the earliest.


“It is rare for me to search for words while making an announcement; hence here’s me keeping it simple — I’ve tested positive for Covid and would request those who came in contact with me to get themselves tested at the earliest,” Smriti tweeted.

Smriti had been actively participating in the election rally for Bihar and by-poll in Gujarat for the past few days.


On October 24, she had addressed a rally at Gujarat’s Vadodara and Bihar’s Bikram area while on October 26, she had addressed a rally in Bodh Gaya for Bihar Assembly elections.
