The Modi government has claimed the record number of Covid-19 vaccinations on Monday is a result of the Centre taking back charge of vaccine procurement from the states.
Data, however, suggests that the record of 86 lakh vaccinations was enabled by slowing down vaccinations in Bharatiya Janata Party-ruled states in the run-up to Monday.
Madhya Pradesh saw the highest number of vaccinations across all states with 16.9 lakh doses administered on Monday. The previous day, however, it had delivered just 692 doses of the vaccine, data from the Centre's vaccination platform CoWin shows.
Health Minister Hash Vardhan tweeted to say that 86 lakh vaccinations was the "highest ever single day coverage" across the world. However, on June 9, Nature reported that China had vaccinated two crore people a day for more than a week.
