The Hindu
‘State will identify a private partner and try to start production at the earliest’
Chief Minister M.K. Stalin has urged Prime Minister Narendra Modi to intervene and lease out the assets of the Integrated Vaccine Complex (IVC) in Chengalpattu to the Tamil Nadu government so that it can be put to use at the earliest. The complex is owned by HLL Bio-Tech Limited, under the Union Ministry of Health and Family Welfare. In a letter written on Wednesday, Mr. Stalin said the modern and high-capacity facility was lying unutilised. “I wish to propose that the assets of IVC be handed over to the State government on lease, without any past liabilities and with full operational freedom. The State government will identify a private partner immediately and make all efforts to commence vaccine production at the earliest,” he said.
