The NCP chief further said that the second wave of the pandemic has spread across the state and the number of patients is increasing exponentially. The situation is worsening day by day, he added.

"Similarly, there is a huge shortage of blood availability in the state. For this, blood donation camps should also be extensively organised. I am sure that we will overcome this pandemic with patience, restraint, precautions and mutual cooperation. Thank you."
