Another family member told, “Don't know from where this news is coming from and who is spreading such news. People should avoid these kinds of rumours.”

On a related note, due to the crowd gathered in all the election rallies during the recent assembly elections in Bengal, there has been a sudden surge in the number of positive corona cases there.
