Murali Krishnan, DW: Coronavirus: Is India counting all COVID deaths?
Coronavirus infections in India have been hitting record peaks for the past few days and the death toll has been on the rise.
But the official death count doesn't tell the full story, say experts.
During the week between April 18 and 25, India reported 2.24 million new coronavirus cases, the highest number recorded by any country in a seven-day period.
It also logged 16,257 deaths, almost double the 8,588 deaths recorded the previous week, according to Health Ministry data.
India has been logging global daily records of over 300,000 cases for the last five days.
The country saw 352,991 daily new infections and 2,812 COVID-related deaths in the past 24 hours.
Altogether, 195,123 people have died while 17.3 million people have been infected with the virus in India.
