Nagpur (Maharashtra) [India], March 3 (ANI) A large number of people gathered at a COVID-19 vaccination facility in Nagpur on Wednesday and as a result, social distancing norms went for a toss.
"There are flaws in NMC's arrangements. There's no social distancing as both registered and non-registered people are waiting. The registered lot must be given preference", said one of the persons waiting for inoculation at the Indira Gandhi Hospital here.
The second phase of the COVID-19 vaccination drive -- to inoculate people above 60 years and those over 45 with comorbidities against the coronavirus -- began on March 1.

The party described demonetisation as a "Tughlaqi farman" that forced ordinary citizens to wait in serpentine queues outside banks and ATMs for days to access their own money.
