Pune: Maharashtra health minister Rajesh Tope on Friday said the state has requested the Union government to consider applying the indelible ink on the fingers of the beneficiaries receiving the Covid-19 vaccine on the lines of identifying the voters after polling.
The state conducted a fairly successful dry run across 114 centres on Friday, when the health machinery checked its preparedness to handle the Covid-19 vaccination.
“We have requested the Union health ministry to use the indelible ink during the vaccination programme, in the lines of which it is done during election. Once the beneficiary has been vaccinated, his finger should be inked. Even if the Union government doesn t approve it, we will follow it in Maharashtra,” Tope said. Swatee Kher
