Event manager and his followers are very adept at him taking all the credit for successes (lol, can't think of any in his disastrous reign) and pass the buck to others in case of failures (which his chequered reign is replete with).Lol what is the point of a PM when for every matter the issue is deflected to chief ministers?
A lockdown will be reimposed on Friday on some 15 million people in the Indian city of Chennai and several neighbouring districts, state officials said, as coronavirus cases surge in the region.
“Full Lockdown from 19th for Chennai, Thiruvallur, Chengalpet & Kanchipuram districts,” the Tamil Nadu state government tweeted.
It will be in place until the end of June.
India, home to 1.3 billion people, has gradually lifted a nationwide lockdown over the past few weeks even as new infections continue rising.
Tamil Nadu, where Chennai is the capital, is the second-worst hit state after Maharashtra.
The southern state has recorded just over 44,000 cases out of a nationwide total of 332,424, according to official figures.
A majority of the cases are in Chennai, according to media reports.
Shops selling essential items and restaurants will be allowed to remain open from early morning until 2pm local time during the lockdown.
The decision was taken after recommendations from an expert panel on how to curb the spread of the infectious disease.
The state government also ordered an audit of the number of recorded deaths after media reports said at least 200 fatalities were not reflected in the official toll of 435.
The renewed restrictions came as questions grew about why India’s initial lockdown, imposed from late March, did not stem the rise in cases, with new daily highs being recorded regularly.
There have been reports of patients struggling to find hospital beds in other major cities such as the capital New Delhi and the financial hub Mumbai, which is the capital of Maharashtra.
not a good day for Indians, the death toll was huge today - 1967 - thats is a massive increase - by 6times if im correct.
Are the indians doing what the Brasilian government is - hiding its numbers and then adding most of them in one day:

There were 325 deaths today. That’s wrong
Maharashtra registered 1400+ deaths today, Delhi 400+ and rest others.

Has to be several days worth of unaccounted deaths being classified as Covid related deaths. Same thing happened in New York in May and the count went up by a few thousand suddenly for that day.
[MENTION=137142]JaDed[/MENTION] - any info on this? I hope this isn’t true but I am almost certain it’s some bug. This can’t be true
worldometer often has statistical errors that they remove after a day or two.
Better to go by official websites for both India and Pakistan.

Edit: Just checked India's official website also says 1965 deaths today. That is a VERY worrying sign. Allah bachaye.
Delhi orders five-day quarantine for Covid-19 cases
Anyone infected with Covid-19 in the Indian capital Delhi must spend five days in official quarantine, authorities have said.
The new quarantine rule was announced by Delhi’s Disaster Management Authority (DDMA) after a record spike in infections on Friday.
The state government has criticised the move, calling it "arbitrary" and touting the success of its home-quarantine programme. "We have treated thousands of mild and asymptomatic cases at home so far through daily monitoring and counselling," it said.
Health experts have also questioned the decision, saying it will place more strain on overstretched hospitals, where overcrowding may risk new infections.
But the Lieutenant Governor of Delhi, Anil Baijal, said the lack of monitoring of those in home quarantine was proving problematic. Delhi's cases jumped by 3,137 to 53,116 on Friday, the biggest daily increase since the pandemic began.
Pathetic rule, comes at the instance of clueless motabhai. Do you even have enough beds to give every patient 5 days official quarantine?Delhi orders five-day quarantine for Covid-19 cases

India's infections soaring in rural areas
India’s coronavirus caseload has risen to 425,282 as infections soar in rural areas to which migrant workers fleeing major cities have returned in recent weeks.
India's health ministry on Monday reported 14,821 new cases and about 300 new deaths, bring the toll of fatalities up to more than 13,000. The coastal state of Goa reported its first COVID-19 death.
India's government planning body Niti Aayog says infections have now emerged in 98 out of 112 of the country’s poorest districts.
Still, about 60 percent of India's cases have been reported in the states of Delhi, which includes the national capital of New Delhi, Maharashtra, home to India's financial capital Mumbai and Tamil Nadu, where manufacturing hub Chennai is located.
Sadly, they did.This is really sad. The hope had been that the returning migrants weren’t carrying Covid with them
[MENTION=143530]Swashbuckler[/MENTION] It has reached my apt in South Chennai as well, it was a guy who I knew from childhood hid his milder symptoms from the everyday inquires of the corporation people as well , with this attitude nothing is going to come good.
In India celebrities and well known people are not getting it with the same rampancy that is they’re getting in Pakistan. Not sure if it can be used as a metric to say its under control somewhat
Looks like another drama by Ramdev. The 'vaccine' was apparently tested only on young and healthy patients and not on high-risk ones such as the elderly or those with comorbidities.<blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">We've prepared the first Ayurvedic-clinically controlled, research, evidence & trial based medicine for COVID19.
