Covid-19 third wave has begun in Bihar: Nitish Kumar

Earlier, on December 25, Nitish had ruled out the probability of bringing in restrictive measures in the state, amid rising cases of the new Omicron variant of coronavirus in the country, which led neighbouring states such as Uttar Pradesh to go in for night curfews

Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar on Wednesday said the third wave of the Covid-19 pandemic has already started in Bihar. His comment comes after the state recorded 47 new Covid-19 cases in the last 24 hours, as pre a report in India Today. 

Earlier, on December 25, Nitish had ruled out the probability of bringing in restrictive measures in the state, amid rising cases of the new Omicron variant of coronavirus in the country, which led neighbouring states such as Uttar Pradesh to go in for night curfews.

"Yahan abhi koi avashyakta nahin hain" (it is not needed here as of now) was his reply when asked about night curfews being introduced by the Yogi Adityanath administration in UP.
