He will remain in isolation.
It was earlier reported that Ganguly was discharged after testing negative for the omicron variant of the deadly virus.
The 49-year-old Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) president was suffering from mild symptoms and being kept under close watch at the hospital. Ganguly received “Monoclonal Antibody Cocktail” therapy on Monday night itself and is currently “hemodynamically stable”, the hospital confirmed.
