Here are the key highlights of the 100 Crore COVID Vaccine Feat:

- India has administered 100 crore Covid vaccine jabs in less than 10 months, BJP national president JP Nadda said in a tweet. India has given 35 lakhs jabs daily to achieve this feat, government data showed.

- The government has planned to put up banners across the nation to celebrate the feat and compliment the doctors for their role in this massive exercise. India becomes the second country after China to administer the 100 crore jabs.

- BJP leaders will visit the vaccination centres today. Party president JP Nadda will visit a centre in UP while general secretaries Arjun Singh and Dushyant Gautam will be in Tamil Nadu and Lucknow, respectively. UP will go to the polls next year.

- Though the country has achieved the 100 crore COVID vaccine jabs feat, it still has a huge gap between the first and the second dose administered. The government is aware of the situation and the risk associated with it as India had witnessed around 450,000 Covid deaths.

- According to the Co-Win portal, around 70.83 crore doses of the first dose is administered till today. But only 29.18 crores of the second dose are administered. Seventy-five per cent of adults have got the first dose, while only thirty-one per cent have got both doses.

- It means only 51% have got one dose which gives an estimated 30% to 50% protection. Only 20% of the population has got both the dosages among around 1.4 billion Indian people.

- News about people missing their second dosages surfaced across India. In Bengal, people have reportedly missed their second dosages scheduled in August-September.

- The top five states which have administered the highest number of dosages are – Uttar Pradesh, Maharashtra, West Bengal, Gujarat and Madhya Pradesh.

- The fear of discrepancy is still prevalent. On PM Modi’s birthday, news reports about giving jabs to dead people in MP had created a nationwide stir. India achieved the feat of 2.5 crore daily dosages on the PM’s birthday.

- According to the tweet by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, 99.9% of the vaccine dosages administered were made in India.

Lathi Charge: A legalised method of police brutality

"Every blow on our bodies this afternoon is like a nail driven into the coffin of British imperialism." These were the precise words of Sher-e-Punjab Lala Lajpat Rai when he got brutally " lathi-charged " by the law enforcers of Colonial India while he was protesting against the Simon Commission in October 1928.  Punjab Kesari Lajpat Rai eventually succumbed to his injuries, and his death gave off the spark for vengeance in the heart of numerous Indian revolutionaries. In December 1928, Shahid-e-Azam Bhagat Singh and his compatriot Shivam Rajguru assassinated the Lahore Assistant Superintendent of Police (ASP) John Saunders to avenge the murder of their mentor. "Lathi-Charge" has remained one of the most brutal and sensitive issues for Indians since the bygone days of the Indian National Movement. Thus, even after 75 years of liberation, India and her children continue to writhe under pain brought on by police brutality and paranoia. Both the Indian Penal

Recruitment Scams and Paper Leaks in India: How the deserving youth of India is getting smothered under an obsolete system

-

" India is an over populous country. " This statement is hardly news to anyone, but very few of us know that the average age of an Indian is just 29 years old. Hence, India is a fairly young country with a strong demographic dividend. However, the ambitions and dreams of millions of Indians lie stranded despite their ability and competence. Each new year brings fresh new hopes for millions of aspirants. These young people have expressed their strong will by deciding to dedicate the prime of their youth to preparing for numerous government examinations. In a country where social class divisions continue to be a notable phenomenon in determining one's future, Government jobs and recruitments offer the only genuine means for attaining an egalitarian society. Today, even this little scope for upliftment gets marred under the evils of Paper leaks and Recruitment scams. The problem of the youth, in essence, is the problem of the nation, and it is high time we illustrated the gr
