On stating that the country’s approach against the Coronavirus pandemic will always remain science-based, he called upon the people to follow COVID protocols.
The PM said in a series of tweets that on one year of the vaccination drive, “India’s approach to fighting the pandemic will always remain science-based. We are also augmenting health infrastructure to ensure our fellow citizens get the proper care. Let us keep following all COVID-19 related protocols and overcome the pandemic.”
On the occasion, the PM expressed his gratitude to those engaged with the world’s largest vaccination drive. “I salute each and every individual who is associated with the vaccination drive. Our vaccination program has added great strength to the fight against Covid-19. It has led to saving lives and thus protecting livelihoods,” he said.

When we see glimpses of people being vaccinated in remote areas, or our healthcare workers taking the vaccines there, our hearts and minds are filled with pride.” As per the latest bulletin issued by the Union Health Ministry on Sunday, 156.76 crore doses of the COVID-19 vaccine have been administered so far under the ongoing nationwide vaccination drive.
