The RDIF's bids for Mumbai comes when Punjab and Delhi have said that private firms have refused their request for Covid vaccine supply.
Mumbai has received three bids for the supply of Russia's Sputnik V Covid vaccine, government sources have said. The city's civic body had earlier this month placed global tenders for one crore doses. The Brihamumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) had placed the tenders on May 11. These were issued under India's latest nationwide COVID-19 inoculation policy, allowing state governments to procure Covid vaccine doses directly from producers. The deadline for submission of bids ends tomorrow. Of the three received till now, one was made directly by the Russian Direct Investment Fund (RDIF) and the other two by its independent representatives, the sources said. "The legal, technical, and financial aspects of the bids will be decided in two weeks, in consultation with the Maharashtra government after the bids close tomorrow," government sources told NDTV.
