India reported 16,738 new coronavirus infections, health ministry data showed on Thursday, for the highest daily jump since January 29, according to a Reuters tally. More than half came from the western state of Maharashtra, India's richest and home to its financial capital of Mumbai, which reported a record high of 8,807 cases on Wednesday.
India's tally of 11.05 million infections is the world's second-highest after the United States, and daily numbers are rising again after a lull in the last few months.
