A three-day statewide pulse polio vaccination drive for children will begin in Madhya Pradesh from Sunday.
Deputy Chief Minister Rajendra Shukla said on Saturday that 27,371 polio booths have been set up across the state to conduct the drive, while more than 1,000 transit teams will be carrying out vaccination drive in the remote areas.
