GORAKHPUR: After inaugurating the pulse polio campaign at Gorakhpur district hospital, chief minister-designate Yogi Adityanath on Sunday said the government's target is to administer polio drops to 3.8 crore children in Uttar Pradesh.
"Our target is to administer polio drops to 3.8 crore children in the state for which 1.1 lakh booths have been set up and more than 76,000 teams have been deployed. It is a communicable epidemic and causes permanent disability. After 2012, no case has been found in Uttar Pradesh but the campaign will continue to save our coming generations till the disease is eradicated from the world," said Yogi.
