Delhi, Madhya Pradesh, and Maharashtra have witnessed the biggest daily surge in coronavirus cases The number of reported covid-19 cases in India has jumped 50 percent over the past two days to 2069, last evening’s data from the ministry of health and family welfare (MoHFW) shows.
This is a faster increase compared to the previous 48 hours, when the reported case count rose 35 percent to 1379. The actual increase has likely been higher, given the ministry updated its data for yesterday early evening, and did not post any further updates in the night even as figures aggregated from state government officials suggested that the case count had inched up far beyond what the Union health ministry was reporting.
