Bangalore:  Karnataka Chief Minister Basavaraj Bommai on August 6 said his planned visit to Delhi stands revoked after he tested positive for COVID-19, with mild symptoms.

Taking to Twitter, he wrote - "I have tested covid positive with Mild symptoms and have isolated myself at house. Those who came in contact with me in the last few days, kindly isolate yourself and get yourself tested. My visit to Delhi cancelled." 

During his journey to Delhi, Bommai was scheduled to attend the 3rd meeting of the National Committee of the "Azadi ka Amrit Mahotsav," which is presided over by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, as well as the 7th meeting of the Governing Council of NITI Aayog. 

Bommai's COVID-19 test came out positive for the second time. On January 10, 2022, Bommai had a COVID-19 positive test.
Further uupdates: Bommai took a jibe at the Congress party over the Bruhat Bangalore Mahanagara Palike (BBMP) reservation and said that the party's culture is that of rowdyism.

"The BBMP reservation matrix may be contested in court by Congress. Instead, the party entered Vikasa Soudha forcefully and got unruly. How fitting is that? This reflects the culture of Congress. Everyone will be against it "Basavaraj Bommai, chief minister, said.

His comments came after the Supreme Court ordered the Karnataka government to publish a ward-by-ward reservation list on Thursday in order to help the State Election Commission start the formation of local governments within a reasonable amount of time.
