SRINAGAR: The Congress and People s Conference leaders have accused the J&K administration of discrepancy in the distribution of the vaccines between Kashmir and Jammu divisions.
The allegations come amid a paucity of doses in the Valley, which has resulted in slow rollout of the vaccination programme.
People s Conference leader Basharat Bukhari claimed that just two hundred people were getting vaccinated across Kashmir on average over the last several days and in contrast, vaccines are being administered in the Jammu region in full swing.
A senior officer involved in the immunisation programme refuted the charges and said that equal distribution of the vaccine doses was taking place in both Kashmir and Jammu divisions. This, even though Kashmiris were initially reluctant to take the jab over fear of side effects.
