While addressing a media briefing on Saturday, Samajwadi Party Chief and former Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Akhilesh Yadav said that he was not going to get vaccinated for now.

He said that he couldn’t trust Bharatiya Janata Party’s (BJP) vaccine.

I am not going to get vaccinated for now. How can I trust BJP’s vaccine? When our government will be formed, everyone will get free vaccine. We will not take BJP’s vaccine, Yadav said.

Yadavs statement came hours after Union Health Minister Dr Harsh Vardhan announced that COVID-19 vaccine would be provided for free to all the Indians.

?What Corona? Who has Corona here? The government only agrees to it’s existence when opposition does something against it. The government who can ride away the virus by clapping and banging plates, why do they require to make a vaccine like Covishield Why are they doing unnecessary dry runs for it?? he remarked.
