Around 100 people will be vaccinated at each of these locations in a day.
Vaccination will be done on four days a week - Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday.
We will begin with 81 centres, it will then be increased to 175 in a few days and then to 1,000 centres across Delhi," said CM Kejriwal.
He further said, "So far, we have received 2,74,000 doses of vaccine from the Centre.
Each person will be administered two doses and Centre provides 10% extra vaccine, taking damage into account.
