Chandanwood 50 minutes ago I understand that Maharashtra Government had their priorities wrong ð ¤ | |
krishnamraju sirna1 hour ago Cudos to Maharashtra govt. It achieved this peak after covid hit one year. This is great to see people left like that roam freely, awesome progress made in 2021. And specially central govt, doing winning the appreciation from world over for vaxinalism, putting the own country at risk without solution so far. I cannot digest news that we exported more than inoculated with in-country. But don't citizen deserve Vax jab as we got out and work for earning money not depending on govt. Are we not considered primary for jab. Please control mod, deploy vaccine for everyone. We cannot risk our lives going out, at same time cannot risk people staying at home as we go out for job. Govt should recognise this and make jab for all soon. Open up Vax, but control it without mishandling. |
