New Delhi/IBNS: Former Rajasthan CM Vasundhara Raje, who recently attended an event where COVID-19 infected singer Kanika Kapoor was also present, on Saturday informed that she is not infected by the virus.

Raje said she will remain in preventive isolation for the next 15 days.

"After conducting a #Covid19 test, I’m happy to inform you that the results came back negative. However, as a preventive measure, my son and I will continue to be in isolation for 15 days," she tweeted.

Her son Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) MP Dushyant Singh, who also attended the event in Lucknow city, tested negative for Coronavirus.

Both the leaders had gone to self-isolation after Kanika Kapoor had tested positive.

Kanika Kapoor, who is known for singing tracks like, 'Baby Doll' and 'Chittiyaan Kalaiyaan', on Friday tested positive for Coronavirus.

In a statement issued on her Instagram account, Kanika said she was experiencing "signs of flu" since the past four days and decided to get a test done.

Along with her statement, Kanika shared two pictures - one image is of the earth wearing a mask and the other is her selfie.

"For the past four days, I have had signs of flu. I decided to get a test done. It came positive for Covid-19," she said.

''My family and me are in complete quarantine now and following medical advice on how to move forward. Contact mapping of people I have been in touch with us underway as well. I was scanned at the airport as per normal procedure 10 days ago when I came back home, the symptoms have developed only 4 days ago. At this stage I would like to urge you all to practice self isolation and get tested if you have the signs," she added in her statement.

Kanika travelled to London lately and arrived in Lucknow on March 15. She also did not inform authorities about her travel history. In fact, Kanika hosted a lavish party for her friends and family at a five-star hotel in Lucknow after returning from London.
