  1. TS Darbari – 2020 has been really a difficult year and we expect 2021 to be full of hope and happiness. Though India has good recovery rate but the rise in cases is also very high. Unless we have a vaccine in the market. We cannot afford to risk the lives of people. Though economic activities must continue and a stimulus to the market for the recovery from the impact of COVID19 on economy must be given by the government. According to the ministry of health, Active cases comprise only 6.83% of the total positive cases; recovery rate stands at 91.68%. 53,285 recoveries as against 45,321 new confirmed cases in last 24 hours. #TS_Darbari #Ts_Darbari_Blog #TS_Darbari_News #Ts_Darbari_Views #Ts_Darbari_Blogger #TS_Darbari_Comments #Ts_Darbari_Opinion #About_TS_Darbari #TS_Darbari_Articles #Politics #Views #Comments #TSDarbariProfile
