The Prime Minister had hailed it as history being scripted and, in an opinion piece on Friday, had described India’s Covid-19 vaccination drive as a journey from “anxiety to assurance” that has made the country emerge stronger, and credited its success to people’s trust in the vaccines despite “various efforts to create mistrust and panic”.
