Delhi Health Minister Satyendar Jain said on Friday that there is no such case of death due to Kovid-19 epidemic in the capital Delhi which has not been counted. Jain’s statement came at a time when the World Health Organization (WHO) had estimated the death of 47 lakh people in India due to this virus a day earlier.
Satyendar Jain, who came to participate in the Swasthya Chintan Shivir organized by the Union Health Ministry in Kevadiya, Gujarat, said that the death toll from Kovid given by the Delhi government to the Center is authentic and correct.
He said that I cannot comment on the figures of the whole country or other states, but there is no such figure of death due to Kovid in the capital which has not been counted. He said that we neither counted one death more nor counted one death less. Delhi is the capital of the country and is it possible that someone has died here due to covid and the death certificate has not been received? Jain said that 100 percent transparency has been kept in collecting the data and counting the number of deaths.

WHO data on deaths due to corona is wrong: BJP
The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) on Friday accused former Congress President Rahul Gandhi of doing politics over the deaths due to the corona virus epidemic. The BJP said that the data released by the World Health Organization (WHO) in this regard is wrong.
BJP spokesperson Sambit Patra said in a press conference held at the party headquarters that the figures released by the WHO regarding the deaths due to the corona virus epidemic in India are wrong and the Indian government has also lodged its objections with the WHO in this regard. . He said that due to the data released by WHO, an attempt has been made to spread a misleading situation about India in the whole world. Patra said that Rahul Gandhi is constantly trying to bring down India. He has let India down by attacking Prime Minister Narendra Modi and BJP time and again. The BJP spokesperson said that India has a sound system for registration of death and birth related data. He alleged that the ‘data’ of the WHO and the ‘son’ of the Congress are both wrong.
Patra claimed that the whole world believes that the way India fought against the corona virus epidemic under the leadership of Prime Minister Modi was amazing and unique as well as an example for the whole world. He said that in such a situation, doing politics on the figures of death could not be more sad than this.
