Union Minister Prakash Javadekar in his press conference answered directly to Rahul Gandhi’s remarks on central government’s handling of corona virus. He said that by the end of this year India would complete vaccinating all its citizens.

Union minister Prakash Javadekar said on Friday all Indians will be vaccinated against the coronavirus disease (Covid-19) by the end of this year as he criticized Congress leader Rahul Gandhi for saying that only 3 per cent of India’s population is inoculated.

“The health ministry last week made it clear that within December the nation will produce 216 crore doses of Covid-19 vaccines which means that at least 108 crore people will be able to get their jabs. So, Rahul Gandhi should understand that India will vaccinate all by December 2021,” Javadekar said during a press conference.

The Wayanad parliamentarian’s press conference led to a war of words between the Congress and the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) after he held Prime Minister Narendra Modi responsible for the damage caused during the second wave of coronavirus pandemic in the country. “He is responsible for the second wave of Covid-19,” Gandhi said. The Congress leader also called PM Modi an ‘event manager’.
