The team sanitized the entire area. Rabri had been asked to remain in home isolation.
Interestingly, a day ago, the Ranchi administration had shifted Rabri’s husband and former Railway Minister lalu Yadv to Kelly’s bungalow from the make-shift jail at RIMS after a few hospital staffers were tested positive for the virus.
