Don’t blame misfortune. This is colossal incompetence and insensitivity. So bad, heads would have rolled even in the old PSU-era Indian Airlines and Air India.
Modi government only knows to take from Sam adhmi, not give.
It’s the joke of the year expecting Modiji to spend 80K crores on vaccines. I think Indiacan never forget millions of her migrant workers haplessly trudging thousands of miles, many having lost their lives, during the early lockdown period.
80000 crores from Modi government for eradicating covid from India?
Its only 80,000 and rest of the bills that you failed to count? India being 3rd world country is already going to have shrinking economy. My parents told me money doesnt grow on trees, guess yours forgot to teach you.
Didn’t your parents teach you when the house is on fire, you shouldn’t spend money on beautifying the garden aka Central Vista project or construct the second floor aka constructing a new Parliament?
Don’t fan the flames in the middle of a fire or spend your time in a world of ‘make believe’ repeating “all is well” ad nauseam. What is good for Ambani and Adani does not mean it is good for India!
Fantastic reply to this pseud.
So who is paying for it? Bill Gates? George Soros? Warren Buffet? Zuckerberg? Jeff Bezos?
Oh wait, the Indian Government will pay. From it’s budget. With tax money and borrowings.
Free isn’t so free after all.
Let the Vaccine get ready First,discussing on finance is too early. Indians can afford to a price for the vaccine. Har cheez mufth main chahiye!!!
Looks like Mr.Poonawala is suggesting the Govt to arrange the 80K Crore funds and keep it ready to pay him.Usually Govt Bills takes time so he is very much concerned about his payment.
The Union health budget for the current year is ₹69, 000 crores! Catch the GoI doing something that is so essential and straightforward as universal Covid vaccination! It would have been a priority if only it had an intent!
The Indian Government’s priorities are entirely different! Such essentials like healthcare, education, defence, infrastructure and maintenance of law & order do not figure in them!
69000cr is from union budget. then there are states budgets too. All this included might still be not enough for 1.2 billion population. At the same time expecting everything for free is not right too. At the end of the day nothing comes for free. Some one or everyone has to pay in one form or other.
Prime Minister Shri Modiji has in his 8 pm address to the Nation has declared for the first time in 70 years covid vaccine will be free for all Indian citizens. Repeat will be free for all Indian citizenss. Next day the PMO clarified that the vaccine is free as long as you pay for it.

Oh! Rs.80,000 crores is small change, eh? The seven decades old habit of freeloading does not die easily.
