Both states - pointing at each other - indicated people from outside their state add to Covid cases.
Haryana Health Minister Anil Vij said high Covid cases in the state's three districts adjoining Delhi is due to "uncontrolled" rise in Covid cases in the national capital.
"More than half of the cases in Haryana are from Gurgaon, Faridabad and Sonepat. The proximity to Delhi has an effect on this. But there is no need to panic. We are well-prepared," Mr Vij told news agency ANI.
