Three policemen tested positive for coronavirus in Mumbai. These policemen were stationed outside Maharashtra Chief MinisterUddhav Thackeray's personal residence, Matoshree.

These constables have been quarantined in Santacruz after the reports came out as positive. Two of these constables had completed their night shift and returned home, while the third one had reported back to Matoshree for his morning shift.

Last month, more than 100 policemen had been quarantined when a tea vendor near Matoshree had tested positive. As the police personnel used to frequently visit the tea stall, almost 130 policemen had to be quarantined as a precaution.

Later, another personnel who was stationed at Uddhav Thackeray's office, Varsha, had also tested positive. Following that, around nine policemen were quarantined.

Maharashtra is one of the worst-hit states in the country, with 10,498 total coronavirus cases, and 459 deaths.
