Port Blair, Apr 25: Responding to Prime Minister’s clarion call for working towards achieving maximum vaccination coverage for the priority groups during Tika Utsav on 24th April 2021, Pankh NGO, Andaman working for the up-liftment of the society, organised a vaccination drive in Haddo, gate no.2 today with the support of the SHO Jyoti Chatwal, Chatham police station and staff of the health department and other frontline workers.
