The police at south Delhi's Malviya Nagar said Dr Vivek Rai left a suicide note, the Indian broadcaster reported on Saturday when the country reported more than 400,000 new COVID-19 cases for the first time in a daily count.
Dr Rai is survived by his wife, who is two-month pregnant, the report said citing a tweet by Dr Ravi Wankhedkar, a former chief of Indian Medical Association.
