The Covid-19 vaccination campaign running between 11-14 April in the country has been named 'Teeka Utsav'. On the other hand, at least 900 vaccination centers remained closed due to lack of dosages in Odisha, after which a series of accusations between the ruling Biju Janata Dal (BJD) and BJP started in the state.

 

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.
