At a time when the opposition in the Indian state Uttar Pradesh has been attacking the Yogi government over its handling of the corona crisis, the state has earned praise for handling of the crisis from a senior journalist from Pakistan.

The Editor of Pakistan's 'Dawn' newspaper Fahd Hussain, tweeted how Uttar Pradesh had strictly enforced the lockdown while Pakistan did not.

"The Indian state of UP has a lower mortality rate than Pakistan, Maharashtra has a higher rate despite the younger population & higher GDP/capita. We must know what UP did right & Maharashtra did wrong to learn the right lessons," he said in the tweet.
