"Security persons deployed for security of the residence have tested positive," Dahal's secretariat told Setopati. "The security persons who escort him, however, have tested negative."
The security persons deployed for Dahal's security were tested with the surge of infections in the Kathmandu Valley and escalating cases of security personnel.
