Mysore/Mysuru: All know that Hyderabad-based Bharat Biotech is involved in developing Covaxin, a possible vaccine for the dreaded
COVID-19 pandemic. But hardly a few know that two persons behind this company had stayed in ‘Namma Mysuru’ for a few years before flying to United States of America (USA) to pursue higher studies on a scholarship.
The couple, Dr. Krishna Ella, Chairman and Managing Director (CMD) and Suchitra K. Ella, Joint Managing Director of Bharat Biotech, was staying near Sterling Theatre in Vidyaranyapuram and then shifted to a house near Ramakrishna Vidyashala in Yadavagiri for 5-6 years.
