Sanawad (Khargone district, Madhya Pradesh): The people above 18 years of age are facing challenge to register themselves for vaccination against Covid-19. They wait for hours for the website to open but don’t come to know when the website opens and closes.
Software developer Anusha Gaur said her registration was done on Cowin website on May 10. Till May 15, she tried to search the slot through the pin code of Sanawad but no centre was shown for Sanawad on the site.
