No COVID-19 Vaccine Jab, No Bus Travel In Civic Buses, Says Thane Mayor

This announcement comes days after the Thane civic body said its employees who have not taken even one dose of the vaccine will not be paid salaries.

Those people who have not received even one shot of anti-COVID 19 vaccines will not be allowed to travel in the buses operated by the Thane Municipal Corporation, city Mayor Naresh Mhaske said on Saturday.

This announcement comes days after the Thane civic body said its employees who have not taken even one dose of the vaccine will not be paid salaries.

"In a bid to meet the target of a cent per cent vaccination by November-end, adopting various measures has become absolutely necessary," a release quoted Mhaske as saying.

It said the TMC had launched a door-to-door survey of vaccinated citizens.
