He said all the hospitals and doctor have been asked not to mention the case of COVID-19 in the death certificate of any person.

"I want to present the fact that doctors in Murshidabad Medical College and Hospital have been advised that there should not be any mention of COVID-19 in the death certificate of the person, who dies due to the virus," said Mr Chowdhury.

"This proves that the complaints and accusation we have been putting on West Bengal government are true," he said.
