From a planning perspective, the May 2021 policy revision shifted vaccine procurement to a centralised model, with the Government of India procuring 75% of doses for free distribution to states. It aimed to ensure equitable access and reduce inter-state disparities. The logic was to streamline a fragmented supply chain.
But I saw it from our tin roof—for weeks, my mother worried for our dhaba’s customers, truckers unsure where to get their jab while moving across states. It was policy on paper, but the real relief came only when the vaccines finally reached our hill station's clinic, bringing peace to pahad. That quiet morning, I felt the gap between the plan and the ground. ❤️
