Telugu Desam Party chief N Chandrababu Naidu on Tuesday said he has tested positive for coronavirus.
"I've tested positive for COVID with mild symptoms. I have quarantined myself at home and taking all the necessary precautions. I would request those who came in contact with me to get themselves tested at the earliest. Please be safe and take care," the former Chief Minister of Andhra Pradesh said in a tweet.
Chandrababu is now in home isolation at this riverfront residence at Undavalli here.
Chief Minister Y S Jagan Mohan Reddy wished Chandrababu a speedy recovery.
"Wishing a speedy recovery & good health for Sri @ncbn garu," Jagan said in a tweet.
