This package will prove helpful in the development of health infrastructure and in the fight against Covid-19 across the nation, said Union Health Minister Mansukh Mandaviya.
 
In a tweet, Mandaviya said, "It is 15 percent of the total amount of the package". This package will be helpful in the development of health infrastructure across the nation, he said.
