EC bosses Sushil Chandra, Rajiv Kumar confirms positive for Covid-19

Chief Election Commissioner Sushil Chandra, who took charge as the 24th CEC after the retirement of Sunil Arora, has tested positive for coronavirus along with his colleague Rajiv Kumar.

CEC Sushil Chandra and election commissioner Rajiv Kumar both have tested positive for Covid-19 at a



time when India is witnessing a massive surge in coronavirus cases. 

With the exit of Sunil Arora, it is only a two-person bench at the Election Commission as the third spot is yet to be filled. Sushil Chandra assumed office as the CEC last week, the day Sunil Arora demitted office.
