Delhi Prime Minister Arvind Kejriwal said on Saturday that schools in the national capital, which have been closed due to the coronavirus pandemic, will not open for now.
The prime minister’s message comes amid a surge in cases of coronavirus disease (Covid-19) in Delhi, where more than 348,000 people have contracted it and 6,189 have died so far. Kejriwal, earlier in the day, had proposed the free availability of the Covid-19 vaccine to all Indian citizens, reasoning that everyone in the country has had problems with the coronavirus disease.
“The whole country should receive a free Covid-19 vaccine. It is the right of the whole country. All people are concerned about the coronavirus, so the vaccine should be free for the country, ”Kejriwal said shortly after opening two flyovers in northeast Delhi.
The political fight over the distribution of the Covid-19 vaccine has become more visible as India has been battling the viral contagion, which has wreaked havoc on the Indian economy, infected more than 7.8 million and claimed 1,17,956 lives. throughout the country, for almost nine months. .
