    Rajasthan may exhaust COVID-19 vaccines by tomorrow; seeks Centre's help

    Reportedly, the state government has slowed down its vaccination drive, saving doses for those who need to be administered the second shot.

    However, the central government reportedly denied that there is a shortage of vaccines in Rajasthan.
