A few days back, Rahul Gandhi canceled all his public meetings, which were scheduled on April 14 in West Bengal’s Uttar Dinajpur. “In view of the Covid situation, I am suspending all my public rallies in West Bengal. I would advise all political leaders to think deeply about the consequences of holding large public rallies under the current circumstances,” he tweeted.

On Monday, former Prime Minister Manmohan Singh also tested positive for COVID-19 and was admitted to the All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS) in Delhi due to fever. On Tuesday, Union Health Minister Dr. Harsh Vardhan said that he is stable.

Rahul Gandhi was among those who posted his wishes for the Congress leader on his Twitter. He wrote: “Dear Dr. Manmohan Singh Ji, Wishing you a speedy recovery. India needs your guidance and advice in this difficult time.”

Last week, two more top Congress leaders, Randeep Singh Surjewala and Digvijaya Singh, had also tested positive for the deadly virus.

Wishing Rahul Gandhi, a speedy recovery!
