Ludhiana, June 16-
Urging the Ludhianavis to take the vaccine as it is the only way forward, Deputy Commissioner Varinder Kumar Sharma on Wednesday said that the administration is holding 150 inoculation camps in the entire district on Thursday and people must support wholeheartedly so that the stock of 36000 doses for 18 + age group can be utilized which would help Ludhiana to cross the milestone of 1 million jabs to residents.
