This week, India recorded the highest daily number of covid-19 cases in any country since the start of the pandemic

was a big day in India. Hindus and Sikhs gathered to mark the new year. Many Muslims celebrated the first day of Ramadan at late-night feasts with friends and family. In Haridwar, a temple town that this year hosts the Kumbh Mela, an intermittent Hindu festival that is the world’s biggest religious gathering, between 1m and 3m people shoved and jostled to take a ritual dip in the Ganges. And across the country, thefor covid-19 for the first time surpassed 200,000 in a single day.

In short, until earlier this year, India’s government, like so many others, had a patchy but not disastrous record in fighting the pandemic. But through complacency and distraction, Mr Modi has allowed things to spiral out of control. In January he boasted, “We not only solved our problems but also helped the world fight the pandemic.

There are signs of improvement. On April 13th the government announced fast-track approval for imports of vaccines that have been approved by various rich countries. It is also belatedly throwing money at procurement. This week it said it would release some $400mto help the Serum Institute boost production. Mr Modi’s Bharatiya Janata Party

Assuming the universe is an unimaginably large microorganism, wouldn't Covid19 be a drug used to destroy beings like us? 'Even if it hurts him so much' Just as we need medicine when we are sick. 🤔

Your statement is blatantly biased; india is a federation of more than 30 states; the pandemic is most severe in 10 states. How can you hold the Center responsible ? The PM and his team are doing all that is required to bring the situation under control. Sanju_Verma_ rajeev_mp

You have no idea what you are talking about.🤦‍♂️

Please check if your source is credible or not.

Thank you for saying it like it is. We replaced a formidable team of Manmohan, Montek, Raghuram Rajat and Chidambaram with a set of orange clad buffoons with false education claims and heads in bovine behinds. ModiAbandonedIndia

Joe Biden has achieved more in THREE MONTHS than Trump did in FOUR YEARS!

Well done to PM for inviting COVID19 into the state and the country when it was about to vanish, he needs to accept the fact that he failed with his administration.🙏🙏 Allowing Election campaigns, religious gatherings, indoor gatherings are the main reason for the second wave.

VACCINATE AND LIBERATE INDIA!

Thanks Modi Ji for being great visionary. Hell is here now.

New strains are always emerging. India has already identified thousands of 'new strains'. Isn't it more likely that more benign strains will succeed than 'dangerous new strains'? What is the point of scaremongering?

The situation is critical. People are dying like flies and Modi is busy pressing Twitter to take down critical posts.
