India sets record with 2.5 crore Covid jabs in a day
On the occasion of Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s birthday, India created a new record with 2.5 crore Covid jabs in a single day. He turned 71 on Friday.
The BJP launched a 20-day mega ‘Seva aur Samarpan’ campaign, which includes activities like Covid-19 vaccination drive, sanitation drives, and blood donation camps across the country.
As per the government figures, India managed to pull off 466 doses per second to hit the milestone.
Every Indian would be proud of today’s record vaccination numbers.
I acknowledge our doctors, innovators, administrators, nurses, healthcare and all front-line workers who have toiled to make the vaccination drive a success. Let us keep boosting vaccination to defeat COVID-19.
