Answer:
number of confirmed coronavirus cases in India has been growing at a rate seen at the early stages in other countries where there was subsequently an exponential rise in infections in a matter of weeks.
As a result, worries are beginning to mount whether India will also witness a significant outbreak in the days ahead. This is despite the sweeping measures put in place by governments at the Centre and in the states. In a televised speech on the evening of March 19, Prime Minister Narendra Modi urged people not to leave their homes unless necessary for the next few week

While India placed travel restrictions relatively early in the spread of Covid-19, and several states moved quickly to shutter public places, the country’s high population density (and the associated difficulty in practising social distancing), overburdened public health infrastructure, high prevalence of non-communicable diseases (NCDs) and the prospect of transmission from younger people to the elderly in joint families all stack the odds against effective containment.
The number of people in India who have tested positive for Covid-19 has nearly doubled to 283 in three days. Seven countries have thus far had more than 10,000 confirmed cases of Covid-19, and it took all of them just 13-19 days to go from 100 reported cases to 10,000, according to the World Health Organization (WHO).
