Because of this I have pulled out of a debate at the @cambridgeunion &out of launch events for the UK edition of my book #TheBattleOfBelonging (published there as #TheStruggleForIndiasSoul). It is offensive to ask fully vaccinated Indians to quarantine. The Brits are reviewing! https://t.co/YEVy3Ez5dj

Meanwhile, Congress leader Jairam Ramesh criticized the UK decision as racist. Jairam Ramesh tweeted that the Kovishield vaccine was developed in the UK and that the Serum Institute is exporting the vaccine there as well.
Absolutely bizarre considering Covishield was originally developed in the UK and The Serum Institute, Pune has supplied to that country too! This smacks of racism. https://t.co/GtKOzMgydf
