Listening to Sunil Raina on how well the COVID pandemic has been managed in India and then reading a quote from a 6 May 2023 The Lancet article,
India's Ascendancy: leadership demands integrity,
is deeply troubling.
"Modi's government have shown themselves to be wholly untrustworthy on COVID-19 health data. Official government figures place deaths at more than 530 000, while WHO excess death estimates for 2020 and 2021 are near 4·7 million."

I see #India is missing from that graph of #ExcessDeaths from the #Kobak database.
Below is a graph from a December 2022 article.

The WHO estimates of excess mortality associated with the COVID-19 pandemic
Do you have a source showing that excess deaths were even higher than the ~4.5 million excess deaths in this article?
