India recorded 47,638 new cases of the novel coronavirus, taking its total to 8.41 million, data from the health ministry showed on Friday.
India has the world’s second-highest caseload behind the United States but has seen a steady dip in cases since September, in spite of the start of the Hindu festival season.
