"Pre-Planned Image-Booster": Congress As Vaccinations Dip After Monday Record

India administered a record 88.09 lakh COVID-19 vaccine doses in a single day on Monday, but the numbers dipped to over 53.4 lakh on Tuesday.

With the vaccination numbers dipping on Tuesday from over 88 lakh doses administered the previous day, the Congress said vaccination cannot be seen as a "one-day fixture" and alleged that the single-day record spike was a "pre-planned image-booster". Who knows, there may be a Nobel Prize for Medicine awarded to the Modi government‘Modi Hai, Mumkin Hai' must now read ‘Modi Hai, Miracle Hai' Vaccination cannot be seen like a one-day fixture. Clearly, yesterday was a pre-planned, image-booster. Today we have not sustained that level. We simply have to sustain at least 80 lakhs a day for the next four-five months. India achieved a "historic milestone" of administering 88.09 lakh coronavirus vaccine doses in a single day on June 21, but the numbers dipped to over 53.4 lakh on Tuesday. Attacking the government, senior Congress spokesperson P Chidambaram said, "Hoard on Sunday, vaccinate on Monday, and go back to limping on Tuesday. That is the secret behind the world "record" of vaccinations on a "single day"." "I am sure the "feat" will find a place in the Guinness book of records! Who knows, there may be a Nobel Prize for Medicine awarded to the Modi government," he said.
