Go, get the jab!" the Chief Minister tweeted."The Chief Minister was thrilled on hearing that the 105-year-old woman had voluntarily agreed to take the Covid vaccine shot and immediately decided to visit her residence personally and to greet her for joining in the vaccination drive," the Chief Minister's Office said.Tripura Chief Secretary Kumar Alok earlier in his tweet mentioned the woman's age as 121.Kumar Alok also tweeted: "121-year-old senior citizen in Brahmacharya under Matabari Block in Tripura gets vaccinated and sets a unique example.
