As the health department was still "validating" reports of new dengue cases, it has not issued any number of people infected by the vector-borne disease, West Bengal Director of Health Services Biswaranjan Satpathy told PTI.
"There are no reports of any dengue death in the last 24 hours and the death toll remained at 23. We are unable to issue the number of new dengue cases because the validating process is still on," Satpathy said.
Till Thursday, 5,639 people were infected by dengue in West Bengal since January.
