Guwahati: India's Prime Minister Narendra Modi, while addressing the nation from the ramparts of the historic Red Fort, said that the Government has prepared the roadmap to all Indians in the "shortest possible time."

"Our roadmap to bring corona vaccine to all Indians in the shortest possible time is ready. Three corona vaccines to all Indians in the shortest possible time is ready. Three corona vaccines are in various stages of trial in India; large-scale production will begin once we get a nod from the scientists", Modi said.

"We will announce the roadmap for its distribution as soon as it gets final clearances", Narendra Modi added.

Narendra Modi during his address also said the government would soon announce the National Digital Health Mission under which, every citizen would get a health ID.

"National Digital Health Mission will bring a new revolution in India's health sector," PM Modi said.

Health updates will be logged in the health ID on every visit to a pharmacy or a doctor, he further added.

"Every Indian will have his own health ID. This ID will have all details like disease, treatment, doctors, hospital visits, payment details, medicine he/she using," PM Modi said.

PM Narendra Modi also lauded the efforts put in by the healthcare workers and other Corona Warriors who have been relentlessly battling the coronavirus pandemic since the threat was reported in the country in January.
