The free corona virus promise from the state governments comes after BJP promised the same in its Bihar polls election manifesto if the party is voted back to power.
After Bihar and Tamil Nadu, the Uttar Pradesh government has now said it will provide free Corona virus vaccine to all the people in the state. Quoting UP Health Minister Jai Pratap Singh, the report said that the vaccine is likely to be made available by March next year.
Opposition parties had slammed the BJP for the promise and demanded action by the Election Commission (EC) while alleging that the ruling party was using the pandemic for political gains.
