Around 13 counting agents of different political parties have tested positive for Covid-19 in the Siliguri and Naxalbari Assembly constituencies, sources have said.

Assembly election candidates and counting agents had undergone Rapid Antigen Tests (RAT) today after the Election Commission of India issued instructions that they would be allowed inside counting centres only if they produce a negative RTPCR or RAT report or have taken both doses of the Covid vaccine.
