With the sea in the backdrop, the colourful sand art by Sudarsan Pattnaik has drawings of a map of India and a large vaccine injection needle to celebrate India's Covid vaccination milestone.
Sand artist Sudarsan Pattnaik has created a sand sculpture at the Puri beach in Odisha on the COVID-19 vaccination drive as India reached the one billion COVID-19 vaccinations milestone this morning.
With the sea in the backdrop, the colourful sand art has drawings of a map of India and a large vaccine injection needle with the words "Congratulations" and "India's Journey of 100 Crore Vaccinations" written.
The hashtag #largestvaccinedrive was also seen inscribed in the sand art alongside a bar indicating vaccination milestones.
In a landmark achievement, India's cumulative COVID-19 vaccination coverage crossed 100 crore doses today. The coronavirus vaccination drive was launched on January 16, 2021 and the government wants all of India's 944 million adults to get vaccinated this year.
