India has already launched vaccination drives against coronavirus. The nation is also helping other countries by providing vaccines. India's Deputy Permanent Representative at the United Nations, Ambassador K Nagaraj Naidu said on Tuesday said that India has launched vaccination drives and are assisting others while at the same time, there are countries that continue to foment terror and undertake disinformation campaigns.
Without naming Pakistan, the Indian envoy attacked the neighbouring country for sponsoring the terriorism. He said, "These globally recognised state sponsors of terrorism have used the pandemic to ramp up recruitment and infiltration activity to spread the venom of terror. The international community needs to hold them accountable for their actions." Talking about its vaccine initiative, Naidu said, "As the largest vaccine-producing country in the world, we are fulfilling our commitment to make our vaccine production and delivery available for the benefit of the entire humanity. Two vaccines have already been granted approval for emergency use in India. We plan to vaccinate about 300 million citizens in the first six months."
Over 19 lakh healthcare workers across India have received shots of Covid-19 vaccine till January 25, the tenth day of the corona drive.
