India to touch 100 cr Covid vaccination mark next week: Mandaviya
Union Health Minister Mansukh Mandaviya said on Saturday that India will achieve the target of 100 crore Covid vaccinations in the coming week.
“We have administered over 37 lakh vaccines by this time today. We will achieve the target of 100 crore vaccinations in the coming week,” said Mandaviya.
The minister made the remark after launching India’s Covid-19 vaccination anthem along with Petroleum Minister Hardeep Singh Puri .
The audio-visual number produced and sung by noted singer Padma Shri Kailash Kher seeks to remove the false narrative and hesitancy surrounding Covid vaccination among the people.
Mandaviya said the anthem is the result of the government’s holistic approach to fight the pandemic, adding that the Petroleum Ministry came up with the idea of the anthem to remove vaccine hesitancy.
He said the song will create awareness among the masses about the efficacy of vaccination.
The minister said that over 74 per cent of the eligible population in India has received the first dose of the Covid vaccine, while the second shot has been administered to over 30 per cent of the eligible population.
Hardeep Puri said, “Because of Health Minister Mandaviya’s tireless work under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, we are going the achieve the target of one billion vaccination within a few days. This is a great achievement and the journey is still on.”
He said the vaccination programme has become a ‘Jan Andolan’ now in the country.
“We are working as a single unit and it is the result of our combined efforts that mass vaccination drives have become successful in the country,” Puri said.
Mandaviya also said that a new song will be released when India crosses the landmark of 100 crore vaccinations.
Sources in the Health Ministry said that the 100 crore vaccination figures could be achieved by October 19-20.

36-year-old absconding accused arrested from Gujarat in Mumbai non-bailable warrant

Mumbai: The Mumbai Crime Branch has claimed the arrest of a wanted suspect, against whom a non-bailable warrant had been issued by the court in connection with a theft case. The 29-year-old complainant was en route to deliver diamonds, gold jewelry, and cash from his shop when, in front of the main entrance of the Panchratna Building, four unidentified individuals—acting in conspiracy—threatened him with a revolver and a knife. They injured him and forcibly stole the diamonds, jewelry, and cash, valued at approximately 2,048,964 rupees. A case was subsequently registered at the D.B. Marg Police Station. Following further investigation by Crime Branch Unit 2, a charge sheet was filed in court. The 59-year-old suspect involved in this crime had repeatedly failed to appear in court during the proceedings, leading to the issuance of a non-bailable warrant against him. The Crime Branch carried out this operation to execute the said warrant.
Acting on direct intelligence and technical analysis, the police team tracked down the 59-year-old suspect—who was a wanted individual subject to a non-bailable warrant—and took him into custody on October 30th in Gaonpur, Vadodara district, Gujarat. This operation was conducted under the directives of Mumbai Police Commissioner Deven Bharti, with the involvement of Joint Police Commissioner Anil Kumbhare, Additional Commissioner Krishna Kant Upadhyay, and DCP Raj Tilak Roshan.
