Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP) chief Mayawati urged all political parties, state governments and industrialists to support the Covid vaccination drive for people aged 18 years and above across the country. She also lauded the move of several foreign countries in providing medical and other help to fight against the pandemic and added that it would certainly control the virus spread in the country.
In a series of tweets on Saturday, Mayawati said, “All the state governments should come forward for mutual support to make the vaccination program for 18 years and above started today to make it successful leaving aside their politics and vested interest. This is what the common people of the country want.”
The BSP chief further said that big industrialists of the country must also participate in this Covid vaccine programme vigorously and with generosity, they should help the Central and state governments in the same way as they do through electoral bonds, etc to fund parties. She tweeted, “As a result of the uncontrolled situation of Covid pandemic in the country, several countries are coming forward to help India in getting grants and medical supplies etc. from abroad. It is commendable and this will make the situation of the country a little better during this crisis.”
