New Delhi: Congress General Secretary Priyanka Gandhi Vadra on Wednesday lashed the government for celebrating Vaccination Day on April 12 and claimed that the vaccination rate was down by 82 percent within 30 days. She also said that it is impossible to fight coronavirus without delivering the vaccines door to door.
Taking to her official Twitter handle, the Congress Secretary noted in Hindi which reads in English: "India is the biggest manufacturer of vaccines. BJP celebrated vaccine day on April 12 but did not make arrangements for vaccines and within 30 days vaccination rate was down by 82 percent. Prime Minister Narendra Modiji went to vaccine industries and got his picture clicked."
"Why did his government order the vaccines in January 2021? U.S and other countries ordered for vaccines with Indian government much earlier. Who will take responsibility of the same? It is impossible to fight Covid-19 without delivering the vaccines door to door," she said in another tweet.
Her remarks came on the day when India recorded 4,205 deaths in 24 hours, the highest in a single day so far, with 3.48 lakh Covid cases. Several states have red-flagged the shortage of vaccines to the central government.
