Mumbai, Mar 4 (UNI) Deputy Chief Minister Ajit Pawar on Thursday informed the Maharashtra Assembly that no incident of rape had occurred with a Covid-19 cured woman patient at a Covid Care Centre in Aurangabad.

Replying to a question raised in the House by BJP MLA Manisha Choudhary, Mr Pawar said, "We have gathered all information...
