100 crore vaccine doses answers all concerns raised on India: PM Modi

A day after India achieved the milestone of administering 100 crore Covid-19 vaccine doses, Prime Minister Modi on Friday said that the vaccinations is not just a number but the beginning of a new chapter.

In a reference to the doubts raised about India’s COVID-19 vaccination programme, PM Modi said that 100 crore doses now answer all these concerns, that too free of cost.

”It is a matter of pride for us that India’s vaccination programme has been science-born, science-driven and science-based,” Modi said.

From the development of vaccines to inoculation, science and science-based approach has been involved in all processes, he asserted.

Taking everyone along, the country started the campaign of ‘Sabko Vaccine, Muft Vaccine’, he noted.

The country, he said, had only one mantra — that if the disease does not discriminate, then there cannot be any discrimination in the vaccination.

”That’s why it was ensured that VIP culture was not allowed,” he said.
