One lakh residents of Dharavi slum sprawl will get Covid-19 vaccines in the next two months under a drive announced by foreign bank Citi and privately-run Jaslok Hospital on Thursday.

Dharavi, one of the largest slum sprawls in the world, was one of the worst affected pockets in the first wave of the Covid-19 pandemic. The drive christened ''Ummeed Dharavi Ke Liye'', commenced on Tuesday and will see low-income earners from Dharavi getting inoculated at the hospital for six days a week within the slum sprawl by the Jaslok staff, as per a statement.
