New Delhi: Following complaints of shortage of COVID-19 vaccines by Maharashtra, the Centre has decided to send 17 lakh doses instead of the earlier-promised 7.3 lakh.
The state’s Health Minister Rajesh Tope said that the state should get more as Uttar Pradesh and Madhya Pradesh are getting over 40 lakh does, Gujarat over 30 lakh and Harayana over 24 lakh.
