India coronavirus cases cross 3 million mark

 The number of coronavirus infections in India crossed the 3 million mark with 69,239 new cases reported yesterday even as the country opened up various sectors from a lockdown that ground businesses to a halt and hurt economic growth.

With the fifth straight day of more than 60,000 new cases, India’s tally stands at 3.04 million, federal health ministry data showed, behind only the United States and Brazil. India yesterday issued guidelines to open up its media production industry with norms for social distancing, crowd management and sanitisation.
