: A 62-year-old man died in
Bhiwadi
’s Khanpur village on Sunday. The district administration fears that he could be a suspected case of Covid-19. The authorities did not test his swab

After that, his condition worsened and he developed respiratory disorder. It could be a suspected case of Covid-19 due to which we are taking all necessary
precautions
. His house will also be isolated along with family members till we confirm whether he was infected or not.”
