India likely recorded almost two million extra deaths in 2021, the deadliest year of the Covid-19 pandemic, than it did in the preceding few years.
NEW DELHI: It also recorded 81,070 more deaths eventually attributed to Covid-19 than what was captured in the official toll released at the time.
These numbers were part of three reports released on Wednesday by the Office of the Registrar General of India (RGI), under the Ministry of Home Affairs.
They are the first official confirmation that India's official toll during the Covid-19 pandemic might have been a gross underestimate, which was indicated in various modelling estimates.
