As part of this initiative, 500 people will be inoculated Wednesday with the help of S L Raheja Hospital, Mahim.
“About 3000 slum dwellers will be vaccinated in phases. Along with J P Nagar and Simla Nagar, some from Asha Nagar and Banganga areas will also be covered. We have a tie-up with S L Raheja Hospital for Wednesday’s drive,” Mukul Mehra, secretary of NSRCF, said. The forum has, so far, raised Rs 25 lakh through donations for the initiative.
