India has registered 230 deaths during the past 24 hours, bringing its total to 5,394 as the country begins its three-stage reopening on Monday, SIA reports.

The lockdown is being eased in most places except for the containment zones now isolated due to coronavirus outbreaks. The Health Ministry said India had 190,535 cases, which is the 7th most worldwide, exceeding Germany and France. More than 60 percent of India's Covid-19 fatalities have occurred in just two states — Maharashtra, the financial hub and entertainment hub of India, and Gujarat, the home state of Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

Experts say that although India’s cases are increasing rapidly, it is nowhere close to the peak of the outbreak. But the government is still easing the lockdown to ease some of the economic pain and hardship.
