Nepal PM said talks are on with India to get more vaccines at a proper price.

Oli said, “We got an early chance to administer the Covid-19 vaccine.

For this, I thank our neighbouring nation India, its government, the people, and especially Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

They sent 10 lakh doses of vaccines to us as a grant within a week of the roll-out in India.” Meanwhile, China is yet to get clearance for its Sinopharm vaccine in Nepal.
