Centre rejects vaccine shortage charge, accuses Maharashtra of wasting doses

Union Minister Prakash Javadekar rejected claims of shortage in Covid-19 vaccine supply.

Maharashtra Health minister Rajesh Tope accused the Centre of supplying less number of vaccines.

Tope said that the state has only two days of stock of Covid-19 vaccines.
