Meanwhile, on Sunday, Delhi had witnessed over a hundred cases of coronavirus cases in the past 24 hours, which is the highest daily rise almost after six months. The city also reported one covid related death in the past 10 days.
Doctors and experts said that Delhi is witnessing a sudden surge in the Covid-19 cases because people are not following the Covid-19 protocols such as social distancing and wearing masks in public areas. Health experts said the city might witness a massive spike in Omicron cases as it is highly transmissible as compared to the previous injections.

I got beaten up like this in school and tuition 20 years ago. That time it was very usual.. That teacher is now the principal of a school. I feel sad now that I went through similar thrashing by teachers.
