The minister said that the state received the least number of vaccines and a majority of vaccination centres were facing closure due to shortage of doses.
“Centre is doing politics. Earlier more vaccinations centres were opened and we were told to vaccinate more and more people but later they stopped giving us the vaccines. Maharashtra has received the least number of vaccine doses. Today, a majority of vaccination centres across the state have been shut due to shortage of vaccine,” ANI quoted Shaikh as saying.
He further stated that smaller states have been given more vaccines, but larger states like Maharashtra, where there are more positive cases, have received lesser doses.
“The way in which politics is happening is not good. The people of Maharashtra are a witness to this that the Centre is giving vaccines to other countries but Maharashtra is receiving it in insufficient amount,” added the Maharashtra minister.
Meanwhile, Maharashtra chief minister Uddhav Thackeray has called a meeting via video conferencing, of all political party leaders on Saturday to review the current Covid-19 situation in the state.
The state entered weekend lockdown from Friday starting 8pm and shall be in force till Monday 7am.

“Today an IPL match is also scheduled here. So I came to see that no crowd gathers at Wankhede Stadium,” said Shaikh.
“We’ll review the situation in fruit and vegetable markets, if violations are found, we’ll take action,” he added.
Indian Premier League (IPL) match between the Chennai Super Kings and Delhi Capitals is scheduled to be played at the Wankhede Stadium from 7:30pm on Saturday.
Responding to a question on the agenda of Saturday’s meeting called by the Maharashtra chief minister, Shaikh said, “It’s not that only lockdown will be discussed. Many other issues like vaccination, and the guidelines people are following or not and what options we have to tackle the increasing cases of Covid-19 in the state.”
