The review was undertaken to evaluate the development of COVID-19 vaccines in India. This review highlights the different types of platforms to develop COVID-19 vaccines, about the safety and efficacy of available COVID-19 vaccines and various strategies applied by government to increase vaccination doses in India. The analysis was done based on data extraction from online electronic databases and utilized all the data available from the WHO, CDC, Indian Government and State Government official portal for COVID-19 vaccines. Search engines like Google Scholar and PubMed were thoroughly searched for keywords like term “COVID-19 vaccines [AND] India, COVID-19 vaccine development [AND] India”, “COVID-19 vaccine Safety and efficacy [AND] India”, “COVID-19 vaccination [AND] India”. Forty articles were searched based on titles, 10 were excluded after reading the abstract. After scrutinizing all retrieved data only ten highly relevant articles were included in the final analysis. Data available from official portal for COVID-19 vaccination daily updates were collected and used as source data for the current study. Hence the data given in the study completely available from the public source. Despite significant increases in the number of well-trained health personnel, facilities, and sophisticated medical equipment, as well as increased access to and sharing of up-to-date scientific and medical information in many countries, the COVID-19 pandemic has proven that pandemic preparedness remains a major global issue that must be addressed urgently.
