Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal this afternoon wrote to Prime Minister Narendra Modi and gave him four suggestions on boosting vaccine production as he underlined the national capital has “paused the rollout” for the 18-44 age group due to a shortage of doses.

All the doses that we received from the government (for 18-44 age group) have been used. A few doses were left, which will also be used by the evening. This is sad. We have written to the centre about this…as soon as we receive supply, we will reopen the centres,” said the Chief Minister during a video address.

Giving the four suggestions to the Prime Minister, Arvind Kejriwal said: “All vaccine makers in India, within 24 hours, should be ordered to manufacture Bharat Biotech’s Covaxin to ramp up stock. International vaccine manufacturers should be given permission to manufacture in India, he underlined as his final suggestion.
