Even before the first vaccine dose is yet to be rolled out in the country, politics over it has already erupted.

The first of the bizarre statements have come from Samajwadi Party chief Akhilesh Yadav. 

Responding to question during a press briefing on whether he would get vaccinated, Akhilesh said: I am not going to get vaccinated for now. How can I trust BJP's vaccine? We will give everyone a free vaccine when our government will be formed. We cannot take BJP's vaccine".

The remarks come even as India is all set to grant Emergency Use Authorisation to a Coronavirus vaccine and trying to create awareness among people with regard to the vaccination.
