BJP leader Nilesh Rane reacts to Akhilesh Yadav's statement 'Will not take BJP's COVID-19 vaccine'

Amid the dry run of coronavirus vaccine taking place in the country, Samajwadi Party (SP) chief Akhilesh Yadav on Saturday said that he will not get vaccinated against coronavirus for now as the "BJP government cannot be trusted".

"I am not going to get vaccinated for now. How can I trust BJP's vaccine, when our government will be formed everyone will get free vaccine. We cannot take BJP's vaccine," said Samajwadi Party chief Akhilesh Yadav.

Maharshtra BJP leader Nilesh Rane has reacted to Yadav's statement. Taking to Twitter rane wrote,"What to say to people who look for parties in medicine. Vaccine will come on every disease but there will never be a cure for the sick mentality and as long as this sick mentality does not go, nothing good can happen in India."

Further commenting on Centre's dry run drive which is being taken across all states and Union Territories, Yadav said, "What is the need for dry dun in the country. This government was eliminating coronavirus by clapping hands and beating utensils. What is the need for such a large cold chain? What is the need for the vaccine?"

According to the Union Health Ministry, the objective of the dry run is to "assess operational feasibility in the use of COVID Vaccine Intelligence Network (Co-WIN) application in a field environment, to test the linkages between planning and implementation and to identify the challenges and guide the way forward prior to actual implementation".

काय म्हणणार अशा माणसांना जे औषधांमध्ये पण पक्ष शोधतात. प्रत्येक आजारावर वॅक्सिंग येईल पण आजारी मानसिकतेवर कधीच औषध येणार नाही आणि जोपर्यंत ही आजारी मानसिकता भारतातून जात नाही तो पर्यंत आपल्या देशाचा काय खरं नाही. https://t.co/G9j4jaAlNL
