New Delhi: Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Wednesday said 23 lakh people in the world had already received the COVID-19 vaccine and asked Prime Minister Narendra Modi when India’s turn would come.

In a Twitter post, the former Congress president also shared a ”Covid vaccinations” chart showing China ahead followed by the United States, United Kingdom and Russia.

He tweeted that 23 lakh people have already received COVID-19 vaccinations and added, “China, US, UK, Russia have started…India ka number kab ayegaa, Modi ji?”

India is yet to approve a vaccine for COVID-19. Pfizer, Bharat Biotech and Serum Institute of India have applied to the Drugs Controller General of India (DCGI) for a licence for emergency use authorisation of their vaccines in India.
