Delhi’s Health Minister Satyendar Jain has tested negative for COVID-19. His condition is stable though he still has fever, reported ANI. He was admitted to Rajiv Gandhi Super Speciality Hospital after he complained of high fever and difficulty in breathing.

“Due to high grade fever and a sudden drop of my oxygen levels last night I have been admitted to RGSSH (Rajiv Gandhi Super Speciality Hospital). Will keep everyone updated,” Jain wrote on Twitter on Tuesday, 16 June.

Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal wished for his speedy recovery on Twitter, saying, "Without caring for your health, you were serving the public day and night. Take care and get well soon."

The 55-year-old minister was part of a meeting with Home Minister Amit Shah and CM Kejriwal, among others, on Sunday to discuss COVID-19 management in the national capital.
