"He further advised us to adopt additional precautionary measures in the interest of the safety of Karnataka's citizens," said Narayan. As Chief Minister B. S. Yediyurappa went into self-quarantine after a week's hospitalisation on Monday evening, two of his cabinet colleagues, Sudhakar and Narayan, substituted for him in a Chief Ministers' video conference called by Prime Minister Narendra Modi on the coronavirus on Tuesday.
