Adar Poonawalla must reveal names of those threatening him: Maharashtra Congress

SII CEO must return as soon as possible to supervise production and address the massive deficit, it says

Stating that the issue of alleged threats to Serum Institute of India (SII) CEO Adar Poonawalla were extremely serious, Maharashtra Congress chief Nana Patole on Monday demanded that Mr. Poonawalla immediately reveal the names of those powerful political people who had purportedly made menacing calls to him. Mr. Patole said Mr. Poonawalla, who is currently in the U.K., must return to India as soon as possible to supervise the production of vaccines and address the massive deficit facing the country. “Mr. Poonawalla himself said in an interview to a U.K. newspaper that he had been threatened by a key political figure. If so, he should reveal who the political figure is…he must return to India from London as soon as possible in the interests of the country and produce vaccines in large quantities to redress the massive deficit.”
