The Department of Biotechnology on Friday said production of&nbsp;Covaxin will be ramped up to reach nearly 10 crore doses per month by September. The govt has roped in three public sector firms to increase its production capacity.
The decision has been taken under the Atmanirbhar Bharat 3.0 Mission Covid Suraksha programme, after inter-ministerial teams visited the sites of two main vaccine manufacturers to get their inputs on how production can be scaled up.
Bharat Biotech Limited, the vaccine manufacturer is being provided a financial grant from the govt to the tune of about&nbsp;Rs 65 crore for a new facility in Bengaluru.
The current production capacity of Covaxin will be doubled by May-June and then increased nearly 6-7 fold by July &ndash; August 2021. This essentially translates to increasing the production from 1 crore vaccine doses in April, 2021 to 6-7 crore vaccine doses/month in July &ndash; August.
The three companies: Haffkine Biopharmaceutical Corporation Ltd, Mumbai, Indian Immunologicals Limited (IIL), Hyderabad and Bharat Immunologicals and Biologicals Limited (BIBCOL) have been roped to increase vaccine capacities.

Voting will be held for the fifth phase of the West Bengal Assembly Election 2021 on Saturday, across 45 constituencies spread over six districts.
As many as 319 candidates, including 39 women, are in the fray in the fifth phase. This phase is crucial for TMC chief Mamata Banerjee, since these are the regions where the BJP gained a significant foothold in the 2019 Lok Sabha elections.

On the other hand, the Sanyukta Morcha, consisting of the Left Front and the Congress have also joined hands with Abbas Siddiqui's Indian Secular Front (ISF) to regain lost fronts in several of the districts in the fray.

Indian-Americans have welcomed the Indian government's decision to simplify the process of maintaining Overseas Citizens of India (OCI) cards, saying more overseas citizens will now opt for this form of residency.
The OCI cardholders will now be required to get their document re-issued only once at the age of 20 instead of multiple times needed to be done currently, the govt said on Thursday.
