China, in bid to shift blame of being the root of coronavirus pandemic, is now suggesting that the virus causing COVID-19 had originated in India. A team of scientists at the Chinese Academy of Sciences -- a state-run institution -- said the virus could be traced back to summer of 2019 in the neighbouring countries of India and Bangladesh. The scientists claimed that the virus travelled to China's Wuhan in a mutated form.
