ROHTAK: Nine family members of Bhiwani BJP MLA Ghanshyam Saraf, including his wife, son and daughters, and four staffers were among the 15 new cases of Covid-19 emerging in the district on Saturday, said a district health department official.
However, MLA Saraf himself tested negative, said Bhiwani’s Covid-19 district co-ordinator, Dr Rajesh Kumar. “All those testing positive were shifted to hospital for treatment after their reports confirmed their health status on Saturday evening,” he said.
The samples of MLA Saraf and his family members were taken and sent for test to PGIMS, Rohtak, after one of his personal assistants was confirmed as a Covid-19 patient two days back.
