The matter regarding Covid-19 cases was reviewed by Union Health Secretary on 24th May 2025 (today) with Secretary, Department of Health Research (DHR) & Director General, Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR), DGHS, National Centre for Disease Control (NCDC) etc.
Some Covid-19 cases have been reported mainly from States like Kerala, Tamil Nadu, Maharashtra, Karnataka etc.
It may be noted that there is a robust pan India system for surveillance of respiratory illnesses including Covid-19 through the Integrated Disease Surveillance Programme (IDSP) and ICMR’s pan India respiratory virus sentinel surveillance network. It is observed that most of these cases are mild and under home care.
It may also be mentioned that there have been some media reports regarding increase in Covid 19 cases in Singapore, Hong Kong and other countries in the recent past. It has been ascertained from the respective National IHR focal points that there is no indication that the circulating variants are more transmissible or cause more severe disease compared to the previously circulating variants.
The Union Health Ministry remains vigilant and through its multiple agencies, is proactively monitoring the situation closely: Health Ministry sources
A #Delhi Court has rejected a plea by a man posing to be a major in the #IndianArmy, seeking #CCTV footage of a hotel over allegations that his wife was having an #affair with a man there.
Upholding the right to #privacy, the court quoted the novel "The End of the Affair" by Graham Greene, and said that “modern day Bharat has no place for gender- condescension and patriarchal notions.”

Over the past 10 days, while the nation has been protesting against the #RGKarMedicalcollege incident and demanding justice, 900 RAPES have occurred across different parts of India - DURING THE VERY TIME WHEN PEOPLE WERE ON THE STREETS PROTESTING AGAINST THIS HORRIBLE CRIME.
Sadly, a lasting solution still remains largely undiscussed.
With 90 RAPES REPORTED DAILY, 4 EVERY HOUR AND 1 EVERY 15 MINUTES - the urgency for a decisive action is clear. We need strong laws that mandate TRIALS & CONVICTIONS WITHIN 50 days, followed by the severest punishments, not just empty promises. State governments must act and urgently push the Union for a comprehensive anti-rape law that ensures swift and strict justice. Anything less is merely symbolic and tragically ineffective.
WAKE UP INDIA!
