India's drug regulator has been speaking on mute for a long time now......
He has been unmuted now but who knows what globules of wisdom, which should have been publicly disclosed.... were said on mute #conspiracytheorist
/ ok actually Id rather pay attention than live-tweet so dont depend on this thread =/ /
The gov officials and scientists are presenting a sort of free-class on what India's regulation already is: Useful, because very few of us have studied all this in detail.
But theyve not yet said anything specific on the COVID trials and its controversies.

And for everyone who likes to hate on Indian journos being "anti India" -- I dont see anyone from Republic/ TimesNow or any of your "pro India" journalists on this webinar, asking any questions, holding this gov to account.... so that your Covid vaccine is safe for your grandma!!
1.5 hours: 2 people have so far read out the rule-book. And now 2 more people will give presentations.
Its a 2 hour webinar.
So I guess none of our journo questions will be addressed, or maybe something naam-ke-vaaste.
