Refugees who came from Pakistan to Rajasthan say that they are unable to get vaccinated against Covid because they don't have Aadhaar cards.

It has been 12 days since 37-year-old Hemji Koli lost his brother Amro Koli who was just six years older than him. As the family members mourn their loss, Hemji rues the fact that his brother couldn't get a vaccinated against Covid-19 in the Jodhpur district of Rajasthan just because they are refugees from Pakistan who have not yet been granted Indian citizenship.

“We could have saved him, had he received the vaccine shot. He visited the nearest vaccination centre twice but he was denied the vaccination as he couldn’t produce an Aadhaar card”, Koli, who lives in a Kacchha house at Anganva Basti in the Jodhpur district, a settlement of Pakistani refugees in Jodhpur, told Outlook.

In 2015, Hemji Koli, his brother along with their family members arrived in India from district Mirpur Khas in Sindh through the Wagah border.  Since then, they have been living in Jodhpur on a long-term visa and hold a Pakistani passport. The family members are still waiting to receive Indian citizenship.

Amro, a father of four kids who worked as a labourer had contracted Covid-19 on May 12, 2021. As per his family members as soon as his test results confirmed that he is Covid positive, his condition started deteriorating and he passed away. “We migrated to India to find a safe shelter but even after six years, we are treated as outsiders and second-grade citizens. For instance, for refugees like us there is no provision of vaccination, a lifesaving drug”, Hemji added.
