KATHMANDU: The 41-year-old male from Nawalparasi, who tested positive for coronavirus on Thursday, had come to Chitwan from India in a truck.

A resident of Devchuli Municipality-12, the person had entered Nepal via Raksaul, according to Health Office Chief Raj Kumar Shrestha.

The infected person, who was a laborer in India, however, has not entered Nawalparasi.
