Covid fraud: 'Kumbh scam was planned conspiracy’

Delayed by a month and a half, the report of the three-member committee to investigate how close to one lakh fake Covid test results popped up during the Maha Kumbh in Haridwar was finally submitted to the Haridwar district magistrate on Saturday. The 2,400-page report, sources said, speaks of the “role” played by the Kumbh Mela health department and district health officials who were responsible for supervising Covid tests conducted during the congregation.
