Abstract: Abstract COVID-19, a pandemic has suddenly created an unprecedented crisis in the world. COVID-19 has severely affected the lives of all the people around the world by forcing the closure or suspension of almost all socio-economic activities. Some of the countries including developed and developing such as China, the USA, Italy, Spain, the UK, France, Iran and India, etc are comprehensively affected to a deep level by this virus in terms of an incurable disease. Several countries have no options as they were hit by COVID-19 in total surprise and had no case study to follow. But some countries have attempted to face the virus such as China, Italy, Spain, Iran, etc. In this context, India has strict preventive majors in the form of a lockdown strategy besides the loosely executed testing and tracking methods. Despite all policies and decisions implementation, and their stringent execution, it is spread, and now India is in the top three COVID-19 affected countries. The rampant increase of COVID-19 cases, their response, and its impact on mortality, the effectiveness of controlling the situation by States need sharp analysis. The proposed work is an attempt to critically assess and explore the pervasive pandemic situation spread in most of the Indian state utilizing comparative analysis using data science methods contrasting them horizontally. Furthermore, the research work suggests few in-depth insights and recommends directions, steps for the public, government and other stakeholders for better management of the COVID-19 situation. Additionally, the study also deals with some ethical issues involved in the data creation, curation, and reporting on the various platforms used in the research work.
