Abstract

With more than four million deaths and 200 million confirmed cases globally (WHO, 2021b), Covid-19 catastrophe and its second wave infringed nations beyond anticipation. The solace came with Covid-19 Vaccines, although, societal perceptions associated with vaccine proved a colossal test. With secondary data, this research attempts to identify how India, responded to such a ferocious infectious disease and how it initiated Covid-19 vaccine immunization drive by operationalizing existing capacities. The research delineates capacity building challenges and effectiveness of measures adopted by the Indian government. As the gigantic immunization drive is ongoing in India, it anatomizes learnings for practitioners and academic research.
