T-Series office sealed after a caretaker tests positive for Covid-19

T-Series building in Mumbai has been sealed by the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) after one caretaker tested positive for COVID-19. As reported by PTI, the spokesperson of the company said that there were caretakers who would work and stay at the office premises in Andheri, and it is now sealed to stop the spread of the deadly virus.

The spokesperson said, “Some of them are migrants who couldn’t go back. There are rooms, a kitchen and all facilities for them at the office building. There are two-three people who are also getting tested, but their reports are pending. For safety reasons, the BMC has sealed the office. It was anyway shut for employees since March 15.”

The spokesperson told indianexpress.com that the staff have been regularly provided with groceries and other essentials. “Bhushan ji is monitoring the situation and will be making all the required arrangements,” he added.

In Mumbai, most of the places are in red or containment zones. Many buildings are sealed after there were reports of positive cases of Coronavirus. Earlier, Oberoi Springs building where celebrities like Vicky Kaushal, Esha Gupta, and Rajkummar Rao among others reside was sealed after an 11-year-old resident was tested positive for Coronavirus. Now, it is unsealed.

The total number of cases of Coronavirus in India is nearing to the 70,000-mark. Maharashtra has reported 22,171 positive cases, out of which 17,140 are active cases, 4,199 have recovered and 832 deaths are caused.

Maharashtra has seen a larger spike out of all the affected states of India.
