    COVID-19: Teachers, staff of two schools test positive in Prayagraj
  • Amid a worrying spike in coronavirus cases in several states across the country, the city of Prayagraj in Uttar Pradesh reported 19 new infections on Tuesday.

    Out of the new cases, 13 cases were traced from two schools alone.

    The cases come just days after offline studies for seniors classes were restarted there earlier this month.

    Here are more details on this.
