Amidst growing cases of Covid-19, Prime Minister Narendra Modi in his talks with the Chief Ministers recently proposed a four-day 'Teeka Utsav' starting from Jyotiba Phule's birth anniversary to BR Ambedkar's birth anniversary. The ministry said that many workplace vaccination centers were operated on the first day of the nationwide Tika Utsav campaign. Due to Sunday, most of such centers were operated at private workplaces.

On average, 45,000 vaccination centers are operating in the country on any given day, the ministry said. But today 63,800 centers were operational and thus an average of 18,800 centers increased. At the same time, the number of vaccine doses on Sunday is low (about 16 lakhs). But till 27 o'clock on the first day of the festival, more than 27 lakh doses were given today.
Centers may close on Mondays
Vijay Panigrahi, director of the Department of Family Welfare in Odisha, said that out of 1,400 centers in the state, only 579 are under vaccination programs.
