The active cases have declined to 4,04,874 comprising 1.23% of the total infections while the national Covid recovery rate was recorded at 97.44%, the health ministry said.

The number of active cases has increased to 3,76,324 and comprise 1.15% of total infections. The national Covid-19 recovery rate has been recorded at 97.51%, the health ministry said.
