TIL Desk/National/New Delhi/ Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal has appealed to the Centre to bring some relaxations in the COVID-19 vaccination guidelines and make the process open for all aged above 18 years. If done so then the entire population of Delhi could be immunised in three months, he asserted.
Acknowledging that coronavirus cases in Delhi have been rising in the last few days, Kejriwal, at a virtual press conference, asserted it was not a matter to be worried about even as he announced the capacity of daily inoculation in Delhi will be augmented from 30,000-40,000 to 1.25 lakh.
He also said the number of vaccination centres will be doubled to 1,000 from about 500 at present spanning both government and private facilities. The closing time for vaccination would be extended and would be done from 9 am to 9 pm from 9 am to 5 pm currently.
Later in the day, an order about extending the timings of vaccination was issued by the health department. “All the facilities will ensure deployment of adequate manpower at these sites to ensure proper functioning of vaccination sites. Non-compliance shall be viewed seriously,” it stated.
