As many as 24 II PU students who wrote the English examination on Thursday in Bengaluru will be asked to go into home quarantine.

This is after the father of a student tested positive on Friday. She had written the examination at a south Bengaluru centre.

Over five lakh students wrote the examination amidst a slew of precautionary measures on Thursday. However, there were complaints of social distancing norms being breached.

Meanwhile, Karnataka on Friday recorded 10 more COVID-19 deaths, taking the toll to 124, seven from Bengaluru alone. Two deaths were reported from Bidar and one from Vijayapura. The total number of deaths in Bengaluru now stands at 58.
