Oxford, Bharat Biotech's vaccines approved for emergency use; PM hails it as ‘Made in India’ moment

Hailing it as a defining moment for the scientific community and frontline Corona warriors, PM Modi tweeted, "It would make every Indian proud that the two vaccines that have been given emergency use approval are made in India! This shows the eagerness of our scientific community to fulfil the dream of an Aatmanirbhar Bharat, at the root of which is care and compassion."

Though the decks have been cleared for a massive inoculation drive, there was no word yet on when the vaccination process will begin.
