It added that seven states and Union Territories did not record any fatality since a week.
The vaccination programme, which entered its fourth week in the country, is believed to be the reason for the declining fatality rate.
So far, over 60 lakh (60,35,660) health care and frontline workers along with 2,23,298 beneficiaries received the COVID vaccine till date, said Health Secretary Rajesh Bhushan.
