Maharashtra Home Minister Dilip Walse Patil has tested positive for coronavirus for the second time in a year.


He had taken both the doses of vaccine against Covid-19.


Walse Patil in a Twitter post on Thursday said after experiencing mild symptoms, he decided to get tested for Covid-19.


"I have tested positive. My condition is stable and I am following my doctor's advice. I urge all those who came in contact with me during Nagpur & Amravati tour, & other programs, to get themselves tested," he tweeted.

The NCP leader had tested positive for the viral infection in October last year also.
