Although I have tested negative yesterday, the doctors have advised that I self isolate for a few days. Unfortunately, I have to cancel the Assam campaign today, Tamil Nadu tomorrow and Kerala day after tomorrow.

“I would like to apologise to everybody for not being able to be there. And, I wish all the candidates that I was supposed to campaign for the very, very best in the election. I hope all of you do well and the Congress is victorious.”
