On taking cognizance of the difficulties of the beneficiaries of Panahgahs, he directed the concerned to further improve the quality of food and services in the Centres.
State and local governments must use all their allocated funds by 2024. We have a lot of smaller cities and towns and even counties that don t have big staff, Loftis said. So they re looking at. We ve got a lot of money, how do we spend it.
In Kershaw County, they are expected to receive $12 million. The County Administrator, Vic Carpenter, said they will be cautious with their funds.
“We re not going to just try to spend it all as fast as we can, only to find out later that we had unknown needs that were kind of percolating below the surface that hadn t risen up or to find out that we had interpreted incorrectly and spend it on something, Carpenter said.
People wait for their turn to get inoculated at a hospital in Unit-IV, Bhubaneswar, on Saturday
BHUBANESWAR: Chief minister Naveen Patnaik has asked the Centre to allow the sale of Covid vaccine in the open market so that those who are willing and have the means to buy them can get inoculated. He also suggested that metropolitan cities, which have been witnessing the bulk of infections, should be given priority in vaccination and states be allowed the freedom to chose the age group to be inoculated.
In a letter addressed to Prime Minister Narendra Modi and released to the media on Saturday, Naveen wrote, “Covid-19 vaccines may be made available outside the government supply chain in the open market so that willing citizens who can afford the vaccine can avail them. This will help governments to have a focused approach towards vulnerable sections of the society.”
