PM Narendra Modi
NEW DELHI: India is ready to help protect the world with not one but two ‘Made in India’ coronavirus vaccines, PM Narendra Modi said on Saturday as he asserted that the world was watching how the country conducts the globe’s biggest vaccination programme.
In his address at the inauguration of the 16th Pravasi Bharatiya Divas Convention, Modi said: “In the corona era, today India is among the countries with the lowest mortality and highest recovery rate in the world. Today, India is ready to protect humanity with not one, but two Made in India corona vaccines.”
He also said India has the most vibrant democracy, days after the violence on Capitol Hill shocked the US and much of the world.
In his virtual address on the theme of ‘Contributing to Aatmanirbhar Bharat’, he said: “Being the pharmacy of the world, India has supplied important medicines to all those in need in the world in the past and is also doing so now.”
“When India got Independence it was said that such a poor and under-literate country will disintegrate and democracy was impossible here. Today’s truth is that India is united and if democracy is most strong, vibrant and lively anywhere in the world, it is in India,” he said.
Modi said he felt very proud about the praise for Indian diaspora and also lauded them for their contributions to the PM-CARES Fund, which has been used to boost health infrastructure in the country.

not just raw material, but also equipment.India make the vaccine, but raw material comes from US.
The materials that are a crucial part of vaccine production include plastics such as disposable fermenters and bags made by a limited number of companies. Some vaccine makers have been days away from stopping production because of a lack of these large sterile liners. Supplies of lab reagents, used for chemical tests, were also a concern, she added.
According to latest news from IndiaPM Modi at Davos: Despite doomsday predictions, India defeated Covid and helped 150 other countries

Prime Minister Narendra Modi addressing World Economic Forum's Davos Dialogue via video conferencing
Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Thursday said that India not only managed to beat the Covid-19 crisis it has also helped over 150 countries in the process, despite predictions for the worst.
Addressing the World Economic Forum's Davos Dialogue via video conferencing, PM Modi said that at the beginning of the pandemic, global experts had predicted that India will face a tsunami of Covid-19 cases. "While some experts said 7-8 million Covid cases, others said more," PM Modi said.
But, he said, with the use of public participation and technology for testing and tracking, India was able to turn the fight against Covid-19 into a mass movement. "Today, Covid cases are declining rapidly in India," PM Modi said at the global platform.
"India's stats cannot be compared with one country as 18 per cent of the world's population lives here and yet we not only solved our problems but also helped the world fight the pandemic," PM Narendra Modi said.
"In these tough times, India has been undertaking its global responsibility from the beginning. When airspace was closed in many countries, India took more than 1 lakh citizens to their countries and delivered essential medicines to more than 150 countries," PM Modi said.
The prime minister further promised the world that India's role in solving the Covid crisis globally will increase with the rollout of more "Made in India" Covid-19 vaccines.
"Right now there are two made in India vaccines. World Economic Forum will be relieved to know that in the time to come many more vaccines will come from India. These vaccines will enable other countries to speed up their vaccination process," he said.
PM Modi said that India has been able to achieve rapid immunisation on the domestic front as well. "In just 12 days, India has vaccinated more than 2.3 million health care workers. In next some months, we will achieve our target of vaccinating 300 million elderly people and people with comorbidities," he said.
On the economic front, PM Modi said, the situation will also rapidly evolve as India works toward its goal to achieve self-reliance.
"Even during Covid times, India kept the economic activity going by investing millions in infra and created jobs. India is marching ahead with a pledge to become self-reliant. India's drive to become self-reliant will strengthen globalisation and Industry 4.0," the PM said.
