India to leverage technology to ensure no kid left unvaccinated
Mint Chennai
|September 10, 2025
India has drawn up a plan to plug gaps in vaccination coverage, and use technology to ensure that no child is left out of its universal immunization programme.
In its attempt to make the immunization programme fully digital, the health ministry has set a firm deadline of 1 April 2026 for all states and Union Territories (UTs) to fully operationalize the U-WIN platform, according to documents and a ministry official familiar with the matter.
This nationwide rollout of U-WIN is a crucial government strategy to strengthen the universal immunization programme (UIP) and ensure every child and pregnant woman receives timely vaccinations.
Under the UIP, India offers free jabs against 12 vaccine-preventable diseases, including tuberculosis (BCG), diphtheria, pertussis, tetanus (DPT), and Hepatitis B.

Itwas one of many brand tie-ins and corporate activations that have accompanied the album’s release, evidence—if any was needed—that Swift is a commercial juggernaut.
