Question

Is it safe to eat chiken now in kanpur,(India)?

Answer 1

So far yes.

And a well -cooked one is safe I hear.

problem is with handling the raw ones.

Answer 2

Stay away from uncooked chicken or places that have living birds.  Aside from that, you shouldn't have any bird flu concerns.

People that frequently handle live birds are pretty much the only ones that have been infected (so your probability of infection is low to begin with).

Answer 3

there is quite a bit of controversy as to whether or not you should be able to eat chicken in india. The bird flu epidemic is quite elusive and it is hard to determine whether or not a chicken, one that is dead, has been infected with this viral infection, so it is preferable to avoid any consumption of chicken as the virus is spreading quite rapidly within asia with frequent casualities depsite the reduction in media related information.
