New Delhi: Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Monday addressed the World Economic Forum’s Davos Agenda via video conferencing. During his speech, he talked about some of the pressing issues like Covid, climate change, cryptocurrency, reforms, and initiatives taken by his government for ease of doing business.

PM Narendra Modi stressed how India saved many lives by supplying essential medicines and vaccines.

PM Modi further added that India is the third-largest pharmaceutical producer in the world, and it is considered a pharmacy to the world. India is tackling another wave of the pandemic with caution and confidence and moving ahead in the economic sphere with many hopeful results.

Prime Minister highlighted that when the world was focussing on interventions like quantitative easing during the Corona period, India was strengthening the reforms.

India has delivered 1154.173 lakh doses of COVID-19 vaccines to 97 countries till December 31, according to the Ministry of External Affairs.

One year ago, India set out on the challenging journey of vaccinating its massive 1.38 billion-strong population against Covid-19. The vaccination drive has been a success because there has been very little vaccine hesitancy compared to the rest of the world. More than 156 crore vaccine doses have been administered in India so far under the national vaccination drive. Of these, more than 90 crores are given as first doses, 65 crores as second doses, and 42 lakh as ‘precautionary doses’.
