The spectacles were bought through a phone bid from an American collector after six minutes of bidding on Friday. Auctioneer Andrew Stowe said it was a new record for East Bristol Auctions and described it as "the star lot of the century". The glasses had been expected to sell for about £15,000. Mr Stowe said the owner of the glasses was an elderly man from Mangotsfield who said he would split the money with his daughter. They had been handed down from generation to generation in the owner's family, after a relative met Gandhi on a visit to South Africa in the 1920s.

  IMAGE COPYRIGHT GETTY IMAGES image caption Delhi has scaled up testing in recent weeks More women than men in India's capital Delhi have been exposed to coronavirus infection, a second round of antibody tests on a sample of people suggests. The government survey found nearly a third of more than 15,000 residents, whose blood samples were tested, had Covid-19 antibodies. The first survey in July found 23.48% of people tested had the antibodies. Delhi has so far recorded more than 150,000 cases, and 4,257 deaths from Covid-19. The latest survey, conducted in early August, found 32.2% of women in the capital had developed antibodies to the virus compared to 28.3% of men. The reason for this was not immediately clear. Overall, 29% of people tested were found to have developed antibodies to the coronavirus. This would mean nearly six million of Delhi's 20 million people were infected with the virus and had recovered. Delhi Health Minister Satyendra Jain said the city was still far

Rajput was found dead in his flat in Mumbai on 14 June. Police said he had killed himself. Since then, unverified details about his career, financial status and even mental health have dominated headlines. It has led to a tussle over who has jurisdiction to investigate - police in Mumbai or his home state Bihar. A single judge bench of the Supreme Court said that the Bihar government was competent to request the case be transferred to the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI). It has also asked the Mumbai police to hand over all evidence collected so far to the investigating agency. His family, who have filed a case of abetment to suicide against his girlfriend Rhea Chakraborty, have also been asking for the case to be transferred away from Mumba

But the number of deaths per million people stands at 34 - far lower than what has been reported in Europe or North America. The case fatality rate or CFR, which measures deaths among Covid-19 patients, is just around 2%. Even in badly-hit state like Maharashtra the number of deaths is doubling only in about 40 days. "The death rates have kept low all along, even as cases rose," K Srinath Reddy, president of the Public Health Foundation of India think tank, told me. Many epidemiologists attribute this relatively low fatality rate to a young population - the elderly are typically more vulnerable. It is not clear whether other factors, such as immunity deriving from previous infections from other coronaviruses, are also resp
