The Centre on Monday informed the Madras High Court that it planned to make available 216 crore doses of COVID-19 vaccines by the year-end so that every Indian could be fully vaccinated. Additional Solicitor-General R. Sankaranarayanan made the submission at the hearing of a suo motu public interest litigation petition taken up by the court to monitor the fight against the pandemic. However, Chief Justice Sanjib Banerjee and Justice Senthilkumar Ramamoorthy observed that the future vaccine allocation to Tamil Nadu appeared to be somewhat skewed and disappointing since it was not in consonance with the number of cases being reported in the State every day. They observed that the allocation “may be revisited” by the Centre with due weightage given to objective factors.More Related News
