Haryana Affected Due To Uncontrolled COVID-19 Infections In Delhi: Anil Vij

Mumbai: Haryana Health Minister Anil Vij on Sunday blamed the “uncontrolled” rise in COVID-19 cases in Delhi for a high incidence of infections in three districts of Haryana bordering Delhi.

When asked about the high Covid infection rate in three districts of Haryana, Anil Vij said that the state has been adversely affected due to its proximity to Delhi.

“The uncontrolled increase in cases in the national capital is affecting Haryana, but there is no need to panic,” he said.

He said, “50 per cent cases come from Gurugram, Faridabad and Sonipat as they are adjacent to Delhi and the infection is spreading rapidly in Delhi. We are making all health-related arrangements in our state.”

Haryana on Sunday recorded 8,900 Covid-19 cases and six fatalities in some districts of the state, which fall in the national capital region, which is the worst-affected.

The active cases in the state climbed to 51,253 from 46,720 reported a day earlier.

Hitting out at him, Delhi Health Minister Satyendar Jain rubbished the claims and said these are all “political talks”.

“I can also tell how many Haryana people are testing positive in Delhi. Over 1,000 Covid-19 cases are being reported from outside Delhi every day,” said Jain lambasting Anil Vij.
