NEW DELHI (Diya TV) — Chinese President Xi Jinping wants to help India fight the coronavirus pandemic. He’s offering to send much need supplies and also “extended condolences” to Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

A Sikh man is recovering after a vicious hammer attack in New York city. Sumit Ahluwalia was working at the front desk of a hotel and says a man walked in and started assaulting him. Ahluwalia says it was fueled by racial hatred. Authorities are still looking for the suspect.
