Prime Minister Narendra Modi while lauding the the crossing of the 100-crore vaccine doses milestone said India’s vaccination programme was science-born, science-driven and science-based. In an address to the nation, the prime minister asserted that there was no ‘VIP culture’ in the vaccination drive.

“We ensured that VIP culture does not overshadow our vaccination program and everyone is treated equally,” he said.

Taking everyone along, the country started the campaign of ‘Sabko Vaccine, Muft Vaccine’, he noted.

The country, he said, had only one mantra — that if the disease does not discriminate, then there cannot be any discrimination in the vaccination.

“That’s why it was ensured that VIP culture was not allowed,” he said.

“It is a matter of pride for us that India’s vaccination programme has been science-born, science-driven and science-based,” Modi said.

From the development of vaccines to inoculation, science and science-based approach has been involved in all processes, he asserted.

Modi also urged citizens to celebrate upcoming festivals with the utmost care, adding the armour of vaccine inoculation does not guarantee complete protection against the virus.

He urged people to keep following COVID protocols and said, “No matter how good the armour is, no matter how modern the armour is, even if armour guarantees complete protection, weapons are not thrown while the battle is on.

“I request that we have to celebrate our festivals with the utmost care.” “I appeal to all those who have not taken the first dose of COVID-19 vaccine to give utmost priority to getting vaccinated.

“Those who are vaccinated should encourage others,” he added. The prime minister also reiterated his clarion call of ‘Vocal For Local’ and appealed to people to buy ‘Made in India’ products during the festival season.
