It means we were alert, a committee had been formed before the case was reported & it had started working, says Mandaviya.
It used to take 3 years for vaccine approval, under Modi vaccine roll out was possible in a year, says Mandaviya.
Under Modi Govt, work is going on to strengthen weak health infrastructure. Without blaming previous govts that ignored health infrastructure, govt worked for results. In the last 2 years, decisions under leadership of PM Modi show that this govt works with willpower and not power, says Mandaviya.
