Mutations must be closely watched. There could be some mutation in future that can affect children adversely. Modi should resign and put in someone educated who can understand all these nuances. An illiterate religious extremist is not fit for PM job

我们必须密切关注病毒变异。未来可能会出现一些新变体，对儿童产生不利影响。莫迪应该辞职，一个不识字的宗教极端分子不适合担任总理

My dear fellow Indians please save yourself and save our country get rid of feku and taklu immediately before they both destroy india completely.

亲爱的印度同胞，请救救自己，救救我们的国家，在莫迪和沙阿完全摧毁印度之前，赶快除掉他们。

Blame covid for all types of deaths so that the numbers can continue to alarm and panic people.

印度将各种类型的死亡都归咎于新冠病毒，继续让人们感到恐慌。

Honorable Modiji loves children

尊敬的莫迪喜欢孩子

Burhan Wani

Modi Bhakats govt is doing hard work to hide the COVID effected numbers instead of providing the O2 to the nation. Modi hatao lndia bachao. Modi spread the COVID by Khumb Mela.

莫迪政府正在努力隐瞒新冠数据，不加紧提供氧气。莫迪批准庆祝大壶节，传导致病毒进一步传播。

Burhan Wani

Modi's Khumb Mela is responsible for the Indian Covid. India can spread the COVID into the world.

莫迪的“大壶节”造成印度的疫情加剧。印度可以把新病毒传播到世界各地。

KIRON P

Every irresponsible citizen of the country is responsible for this situation. Everyone thinks he/she will not get covid, the kids are on the street playing. Parents allow them because they don't want nagging kids around. People should introspect before pointing fingers.

每一个不负责任的印度公民都要对目前的情况负责。每个人都认为自己不会感染病毒，孩子们在街上玩耍，父母允许他们这样做，因为他们不想让孩子在身边闹腾。人们在指责别人之前应该先反省一下自己。

Nasim Akhtar

TRUST ME. HAD OUR FEKU AND HIS KNICKERWALLA ADVISORS WERE EDUCATED, WE WOULD HAVE SAVE THOUSANDS OF LIVES. FEKU KEPT HIMSELF BUSY FIGHTING WITH DIDI WHILE PEOPLE KEPT DYING ON THE STREETS. SHAMEFUL !!!

如果莫迪和他的幕僚受过教育，我们本可挽救数千条生命。莫迪忙于与玛玛塔抗争，而人们不断死去。可耻! !

Sad truth is historically Indian lives are always cheap, nearing 25% positivity rate these are statistically improbable numbers, reality could be multiple times more.

可悲的事实是，印度人的生命历来都是廉价的，公布的阳性率接近25%，实际数据可能是这个的好几倍。

Swarup Chakraborty

I think the most suffered since last year due to Covid are the kids, students. Covid has ruined their life not only by attacking the children’s health,as well as their education also.

我认为自去年以来受新冠病毒感染最严重的是孩子和学生。新冠病毒不仅影响了儿童的健康，也防碍他们上学，打乱了他们的生活。

1万多确诊，17人死亡(死亡率0.02%)，毫无疑问，死的孩子根本没有接种疫苗。就像阿萨姆邦人说的，孩子应该优先接种疫苗
