Highlights:
- Vaccine shortage in Maharashtra, Delhi, West Bengal, Andhra Pradesh
- Chief ministers of non-BJP ruled states worried
- BJP leader Subramaniam Swamy advises opposition against his government
All the states, frustrated by the lack of adequate vaccines, should come together and demand the bulk from abroad and pass the bill directly to the central government. Politically, the Modi government will have no choice but to pay the bills and will not take the risk of refusing to pay the bills, said Subramaniam Swamy.
This advice of Subramaniam Swamy was confusing to many. So for the BJP leaders, this advice was nothing short of a shock. This advice of a BJP leader who is causing trouble to the central government is well discussed. Subramaniam Swamy has already made several anti-party statements.
Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal has announced that stocks of vaccines are almost depleted in the state. Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister YS Jaganmohan Reddy has also written a public letter to Prime Minister Narendra Modi in this regard.
For the campaign launched by Prime Minister Narendra Modi and hailed as ‘the world’s largest vaccination drive’, the Center has now directed the states to import vaccines directly from abroad through international tenders. Many states have also issued international tenders. With this policy of the Center, the Central Government is targeting the non-BJP ruled states.
Opposition groups called for a boycott of the Modi government. The non-BJP-ruled states have also criticized the Center for running away from its responsibilities and shifting the responsibility to the states after it went out of control.
