IDUKKI: E S Bijimol MLA has said the reports that she is under quarantine are baseless. “I’m not under quarantine. I have not come into contact with patients either directly or indirectly. The meeting at Elappara had followed all Covid protocols. Don’t spread anxiety.

There is no need for me to go under quarantine. It is unfortunate to hear such news that creates anxiety among people. People need not worry. I have not come into contact with doctors or Asha workers,” she said on Facebook live.

Bijimol has said if she has to go under quarantine, she would inform media. “The news appearing on TV channels about me in this regard is also baseless. If there is any problem I’ll come again on FB live,” she added.

Earlier, after Covid review meeting, minister M M Mani had said that Bijimol had been under quarantine.
