GUWAHATI: For the first time in more than a month, the daily Covid-19 count in Assam came below the 4,000-mark other than a Sunday.
Usually the daily cases are reported low on Sundays due to lesser testing.
But even after carrying out 1.16 lakh tests on Saturday, a total of 3,781 positive cases were detected.
However, the number of active cases in the state went up from Friday’s 50,765 to 51,403 by Saturday evening.
