Bengaluru: Regretting the raging controversy over the life-saving Covid-19 vaccine in political circles, Dr. C.N. Ashwathnarayan, Deputy Chief Minister and State Covid Task Force Ministerial Committee Chairman said the Government was committed to complete vaccination of 18-plus category population before December 2021.
Speaking after inaugurating a special vaccination drive for advocates at Kanteerava Stadium organised jointly by Advocates for Green Earth and BBMP here recently, he said vaccine was the only weapon they have to fight against the pandemic. However, lot of politics was going on regarding vaccination. Prime Minister Narendra Modi successfully faced the conspiracies in the international level and the State Government has given a fitting reply to politics over vaccination in the State, he added.
He said the research, manufacturing and vaccination of Covid-19 vaccine has been very fast in India than in other nations. This needs to be acknowledged by one and all. “I appeal everyone to take vaccine, get your family members vaccinated and also convince your neighbours to get inoculated,” he said.
