And in a Special Interview, investigative journalist and Washington Post Global Opinions Writer Rana Ayyub discusses why she believes India’s government is downplaying the true extent of the COVID-19 crisis overwhelming the country. - Subscribe to our channel: http://aje.io/AJSubscribe - Follow us on Twitter: https://twitter.com/AJEnglish - Find us on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/aljazeera - Check our website: https://www.aljazeera.com/
