Union Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman
Union Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman on Tuesday said that India is successfully carrying out the world’s biggest free vaccination programme against the Covid-19 pandemic.
“India’s free vaccination programme is globally one of the biggest. We have covered 875 million doses as of today. Migrant workers exceeding four million were assisted. Construction workers were given consistent support to sail through the trying times, and most importantly, more than 100 million rural unorganised workers received wages through work amounting to more than Rs 1 trillion,” Sitharaman said.
The Finance Minister was addressing the United Nations (UN) high-level discussion on jobs and social protection for poverty eradication. She also referred to a comprehensive economic package under the ‘Aatmanirbhar Bharat’ to revive economic growth during the pandemic.
