West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee.
West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee made a statement on Wednesday (4 March) alleging that panic was being spread in the name of Coronavirus to cover up Delhi violence, Times Now has reported.
“People are screaming corona, corona. Don’t panic. Some (media) channels are trying to cover up the Delhi violence with the coronavirus panic”, Mamata was quoted as saying.
She added that people should not panic over the disease and that those killed in Delhi violence did not die due to Coronavirus.
“Had people died of coronavirus, we could have still understood that they died because of disease that does not have treatment as yet”, said Mamata.
Till now a total of 28 positive Coronavirus cases have been detected in India so far. Health Minister Dr Harsh Vardhan informed that the authorities will now screen all international flights for suspected Coronavirus cases.
