    This shows that Covid-19 is till going strong in India. Like it is done in typical India where lies are produced as facts, the Covid-19 case numbers are falsified and the numbers dead too are falsified. The Covid-19 has to reach its peak, which it has not amd wait for more and more cases of infections and more deaths until the virus peters out. This is months away,
    So the bearded miracle man Modi has to hide for more months,issuing his words of wisdom from hs bunker in New Delhi after all!
