INDIA is seeing a rise in COVID-19 cases, with Kerala, Maharashtra, and Delhi being the top contributors, according to government data.

- KAVITA BAJELI-DATT @New Delhi

In the past week, seven people have succumbed to the virus, which has flared up after a long, quiet period. Till May 19, one death was reported in the country. As of May 26, India has recorded 1,009 active cases, of which over 700 were reported in the last week.

Dr Rajiv Behl, Director General of the Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR), said there was no cause for worry.

"Are we getting a very severe disease without comorbidities? As of now, the severity is generally low. There's nothing to worry about. We should be vigilant, and we should always be prepared," the ICMR DG added. "People do not need to take any immediate action. They should follow normal precautions. So, there is nothing special to do right now."
