We are grateful to BIRAC for their support and we are enthused that these approvals would help support our subsequent filings with WHO as well. We appreciate and acknowledge the contribution of all our collaborators for their continued support in this endeavour.’’

The Department of Biotechnology has taken several initiatives to increase investments in research & development (R&D) and the manufacture of COVID-19 Vaccines. The establishment of the Mission COVID Suraksha Program is one such endeavour for COVID-19 vaccine development to reinforce and streamline available resources towards accelerated vaccine development, leading to bringing in a safe, efficacious, affordable, and accessible COVID-19 Vaccine for the citizens at the earliest with a target of Atmanirbhar Bharat.
