India's Vice-President M. Venkaiah Naidu has tested positive for the coronavirus and will home quarantine.
His office says in a tweet on Tuesday the 71 year old Naidu is asymptomatic and in good health.
His wife, Usha Naidu, has tested negative and is in self-isolation.
Naidu recently attended a session of India's Parliament that was cut short after more than 20 lawmakers tested positive.
India's Home Minister Amit Shah tested positive last month and recovered in a hospital.
India registered 70,589 new cases and 776 more confirmed deaths in the last 24 hours.
That pushed the totals to more than 6.1 million cases and more than 96,000 confirmed deaths.
