India’s Omicron tally crossed the 150-mark on Sunday and stood at 155 with 10 fresh cases reported from two states --- six from Maharashtra and four from Gujarat.

Maharashtra tops the chart in the statewise tally with 54 cases, followed by Delhi which has 22 cases. Among the new cases in Maharashtra, four were detected in Mumbai and one each in Pimpri Chinchwad and Pune (rural). The four cases detected in Mumbai were overseas travelers – two from UK and others from Tanzania -- who tested positive for Covid-19 when screened at the airport. All of them are fully vaccinated.

The Pune case is a 5-yearold boy, who is a close contact of a traveller from Dubai. The Pimpri Chinchwad case is a 46-year-old returnee from a middle eastern country. Maharashtra health authorities said that of the 54 cases, 28 have already been discharged, while the rest remain asymptomatic or mildly symptomatic.
