Chief minister, who also holds the health and family welfare portfolio, has often thanked frontline workers for their fight against Covid and said was among the few chief ministers to announce that her government was providing free Covid- 19 vaccine to all in the state.

Last month, in an open letter, Miss Banerjee had said: “Our government is sending the vaccine free of cost to all people in the state.”
