India, which began a polio immunisation programme in 1995, recorded its last case in 2011. The interim 16 years was marked by misinformation, vaccine hesitancy and scientific hurdles.
Apart from the polio vaccine, ‘expired’ Easy 6 vaccine was also administered to the children. A CRPF officer, however, said not all vaccines were expired.
China flaunted military might & modernisation as it displayed stealth drones, anti-satellite system & cyber warfare contingent during parade to mark victory over Japan in WWII.
From Munir’s point of view, a few bumps here and there is par for the course. He isn’t going to drive his dumper truck to its doom. He wants to use it as a weapon.
