Now, Yogi Adityanath, Hemant Soren & Mangal Pandey ‘vaccinated’ at Tekari in Bihar

GAYA: A day after fudged registration for RT-PCR test of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, home minister Amit Shah and actor Priyanka Chopra surfaced at Karpi in Arwal district of Bihar, Uttar Pradesh chief minister Yogi Adityanath, his Jharkhand counterpart Hemant Soren, former Bihar CM Rabri Devi and even the state health minister Mangal Pandey figured among those ‘vaccinated’ in Gaya district on Tuesday.
After the incident came to light, all the user IDs of Covid vaccinators in the district were inactivated with immediate effect. Gaya civil surgeon K K Rai told the media that an FIR was lodged with Tekari police station in connection with the forgery.
“According to the report forwarded to senior officials by Tekari block health manager (BHM), Jharkhand CM Hemant Soren, his UP counterpart Yogi Adityanath, former Bihar CM Rabri Devi and state health minister Mangal Pandey were administered the Covid vaccine doses at 1pm on Tuesday,” Rai told reporters.
Sources said the cellphone numbers mentioned against the beneficiary names were ‘switched off’.
“The Tekari BHM reported to the district monitoring and evaluation officer that mobile phone number 9525491600 of Alipur health sub-centre ANM Usha Kumari was frequently used as user ID and password on the Covid vaccination portal, CoWIN, by either of the four vaccinators — Upendra Singh, Akash Kumar, Ravi Raj and Baban Kumar — who were hired for vaccination and knew the cellphone number for use as ID and password for data entry. One of them has committed the fraud and he will be identified soon,” Rai added.
