Days after the Drug Controller of Delhi informed the Delhi high court that his foundation has committed an offense under the Drugs and Cosmetics Act for hoarding unauthorized stock of COVID-19 drugs, Bharatiya Janata Party MP Gautam Gambhir announced that he will start free COVID vaccination camps in Delhi from Monday.
According to the Gautam Gambhir Foundation, the camps will be organized in collaboration with private hospitals and all the expenses will be borne by it.
Speaking to ANI, Gambhir said, “We will start free COVID vaccination camps from Monday. We will run these camps till the people of Delhi are completely vaccinated.
“Our foundation has been helping the people in the past and will continue till the last breath to save the lives of the people of Delhi.”
The cricketer-turned-politician said the vaccination camps will also be started in slum clusters.
“We will extend the vaccination camps and take them to the clusters. In the clusters, we will vaccinate the people through mobile vaccination vans.
“There we will do vaccination for one day a week (every Sunday) and will increase it further if needed. Right now the camp is being organized for people above 45 years of age, but in the future, we will also get people in the age group of 18-44 years vaccinated,” added Gambhir.
Gambhir is likely to start the first COVID vaccination camp in his parliamentary constituency East Delhi.
