India has developed two vaccines against coronavirus and supplying it to the other nations also. Entire world is praising India for its capabilities to fight the virus. The UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres on Friday praised India's role in the world as vaccine making hub. 

He applauded India for the supply of corona vaccines to countries around the world. The UN chief said, "I would like to say how much we count on India. I mean, India has one of the most advanced pharmaceutical industries. India played a very important role in the production of generics for use that was a very important element of democratisation of access to medicines all over the world." Guterres hopes that India will have all the instruments that are necessary to play a key role in making sure that a global vaccination campaign becomes possible. He thinks that the production capacity of India is one of the best assets the world has today, and I hope the world understands that it must be fully used.

India has supplied more than 6 million corona doses to nine countries in Phase-I under its initiative termed "Vaccine Maitri". Contractual supplies to various countries are also being undertaken in a phased manner .
