Two IPS probationers have tested positive for Covid-19 at the Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel National Police Academy (SVPNPA) here. Both are men in their early 30s who are from Delhi and Punjab cadres.

Academy sources said the two were among the 131 IPS probationers of 71 Regular Recruits (RR) 2018 batch, who returned from District Practical Training (DPT), to the Academy. All probationers returned in different batches between June 3 and June 6 for phase II training and were quarantined at the academy for seven days.

As the quarantine period ended on Monday, their samples were collected for testing and two tested positive. There is lots of anxiety in the academy as results of many others are still awaited according to sources. One of the probationers was attached to a DCP in Delhi during his training, while the other trained at Bathinda.
