The Coronavirus situation in Delhi is worsening with the national capital among the worst hit states in the country. Delhi recorded 73 deaths on Monday in the highest spike over 24 hours. The Delhi COVID-19 tally has now climbed to 42,829 with a spike in cases being recorded after the easing of lockdown norms.
Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal had clarified that speculation on another lock down in Delhi is baseless and that there are no such plans.
