The national capital reported 17,364 new Covid-19 cases on Saturday, the fifth day in a row when it reported a single-day spike of below 20,000 cases, pushing the overall case tally to 13,10,231.

In some relief, the test positivity rate remained below the 25 per cent-mark for the third consecutive day at 23.32 per cent, according to the Delhi government's health bulletin. Why are the politicians not speaking over the rise in cases?
