The Congress on Thursday said the government should issue a white paper on its COVID-vaccination strategy and urged Prime Minister Narendra Modi to accelerate the work on inoculating all Indians against the viral disease on a war footing. Congress leader Rajeev Shukla said this is not the time for image-building but to help the people in need during the pandemic. He also expressed concern over the spread of the coronavirus in villages and said the prime minister needs to work together with the states to step up medical facilities in rural areas and vaccinate more and more people. "We demand that the government issue a white paper on its vaccination policy for all to know how many vaccines have been procured and are in the pipeline to vaccinate all Indians," Mr Shukla told reporters.
