Surveys will help us in identifying such populations in each electoral district.
With Thus, we will hold a vaccination camp closer to their home, “he said.

Rizwan Arshad, Mla from Shivajinagar, said BBMP might take at least two years to vaccinate all its constituents at the current vaccination rate.
“We have been able to cover only about 10 percent of the total adult population of my constituency.
There is also the uncertainty of the supply of vaccines.
The BBMP promised 400 doses in the previous day but only 100 doses arrived the next day.
Many people register and come for vaccines forced to back, “he said.
