The data is sourced from covid19india.org, an independent aggregator of daily COVID-19 figures. Daily infections in India have crossed the one-lakh mark for the second consecutive day on Thursday. The rise in detected cases in the last two days was primarily due to a high number of tests being held recently. Wednesday marked the third consecutive day with more than 12 lakh daily tests.
