Bolstering its fight against Covid-19, India on July 17 achieved a major milestone of administering 200-crore jabs to the eligible population.

The feat was achieved days after the Modi government launched a 75-day free booster dose campaign 'COVID Vaccination Amrit Mahotsava' wherein booster/precaution dose is being inoculated free of cost at government vaccination centres to eligible adults.
