Door-to-door survey on vaccination status of families may be conducted
A certificate of proof of vaccination against COVID-19 will soon be a precondition for availing of benefits of government schemes and even the Diwali special gifts likely from the Puducherry government, Lt. Governor Tamilisai Soundararajan said on Thursday.
Flagging off the Indian Air Force East Coast Cycle Expedition in front of the Raj Nivas to commemorate the 1971 war victory over Pakistan, Ms. Soundararajan said it was proposed to conduct door-to-door surveys on vaccination status of families and to identify those yet to volunteer for the jab.
Pensioners, as one of the most vulnerable sections of the population, who did not take the shot would be identified and prioritised for vaccination, the Lt. Governor said.
