आज 15-18 आयुवर्ग के बच्चों के लिए शुरू हुए टीकाकरण अभियान के तहत मेरे क्षेत्र पालीताणा, भावनगर में भी बच्चों ने बढ़-चढ़ कर हिस्सा लिया। 

मैं सभी लाभार्थियों को बधाई देता हूं और आग्रह करता हूं की जो पात्र लोग अभी वैक्सीन से वंचित है, वो जल्द अपना पंजीकरण करे व वैक्सीन लें। pic.twitter.com/QyFVBGeRqO— Dr Mansukh Mandaviya (@mansukhmandviya) January 3, 2022
