New Delhi:
Delhi on Wednesday reported over 6,000 coronavirus cases within 24 hours, for the second time in a row. The national capital, which has been facing its worst COVID-19 wave since the pandemic hit the country early this year, has logged 6,842 new cases in a day, its highest ever tally. On Tuesday, it reported 6,725 cases – its previous single-day record.
Delhi Chief Arvind Kejriwal, on Wednesday, admitted what experts had been pointing out for several days – a third wave of infections has hit the national capital.
“For some time now, Delhi has seen an increase in the number of the coronavirus cases. We may refer to it as the third wave. We are holding a review meeting tomorrow over this,” Chief Minister Kejriwal said today.
