In what it could be a shocker, an Indian Jawan was tested positive for the novel coronavirus and has been kept in an isolation ward at a hospital in Ladakh. This case is the first positive case in the Indian Army.

Going into detail, the Indian Army officer who works at the infantry regiment, popularly known as the 'Snow Warriors' is admitted to the S.N.M. hospital in Ladakh.



It has been widely reported that the soldier's father has also tested positive for COVID-19 and undergoing some medications. It is believed that his father has a travel history of Iran.

"His father was quarantined from February 29 at the Ladakh Heart Foundation and reported positive for COVID-19 on March 6 and was isolated at the local SNM Hospital," Army sources stated.
