The Delhi High Court on Friday asked the Municipal Corporation of Delhi to file a status report explaining the reason behind the increase in cases of dengue in the national capital in the last three months.
While the corporation has not been releasing weekly dengue reports since August, data accessed by The Indian Express revealed that the spike in cases was the highest in the month of September with 2,141 cases.
India is battling a constant spike in dengue cases due to excessive rainfall, floods and waterlogging, especially in the states of Delhi, Delhi NCR and Uttarakhand. TheHealthSite.com
