Pune district on Tuesday set a milestone of vaccination. Over 60 lakh Pune residents are fully vaccinated against corona. The Cowin data reported that over 90 doses of first and second vaccine had been given to 18-44 age group while above 60 years age group have taken 20 lakh doses of vaccine. 

An official said Har Ghar Dastak campaign which was started on November this year, had played an important role in this milestone "Many unvaccinated people and those due for the second dose were identified through it," said the official.
