Referring to the Prime Minister’s call to get vaccinated and become ‘Bahubali’ or the strong person to fight Corona, the Governor has said this message has to reach rural and tribal areas where still some vaccine hesitancy exists. Informing that she herself received the second dose of vaccine in a tribal area recently, the Governor said the repeated messages of the Prime Minister emphasising importance of vaccination and the decision of the Govt to provide free vaccine to all above 18 years of age should reach the grassroot level.

A total of 10 mobile digital video publicity vans, flagged off by the Governor, will run for a week from 24th to  30th of this month in 29 districts of the state namely –Adilabad, Bhadradri Kothagudem, Jagitial, Jangaon, Jayashankar Bhoopalpally Jogulamba Gadwal, Kamareddy, Karimnagar, Khammam, Komaram Bheem Asifabad, Mahabubabad, Mahabubnagar, Mancherial, Medak, Mulugu, Nagarkurnool, Nalgonda, Nirmal, Nizamabad, Peddapalli,  Rajanna Sircilla, Sangareddy, Siddipet, Suryapet, Vikarabad, Wanaparthy,  Warangal (Rural), Warangal (Urban) and Yadadri Bhuvanagiri.

The video vans will tour in these districts mainly concentrating on public places like Railway stations, Bus stations, Markets, Business localities and Traffic junctions where the floating population is found in large numbers
