Had there been no vaccination drive in college, student Altamash Pistawala says he would not have taken the COVID-19 vaccine. According to him, it was not required if he is not stepping out of the house. Now, not only have colleges made it mandatory to be fully vaccinated, but they are also providing easy access to vaccinations through a special drive sponsored by the Maharashtra government. 

The state-sponsored drive for college students began on Monday and 3,920 students were vaccinated in 35 colleges. State Higher and Technical Education Minister Uday Samant inaugurated the drive at MMK College in Bandra where 100 were vaccinated.
