Lack of internet, psychology of doubts vaccines or unfounded species are indian barriers to realize the entire population vaccination target.

Located in the middle of a bustling district concentrating many hotels and New Delhi train station, the Indian Paharganj slums do not look like a Covid-19 hotspot.

This spectacle was only recently, when India has just undergone the coven-19 second wave.

Homeless people queue waiting to support online vaccination registration at a temporary residence camp in New Delhi, India.

Jeevan Kumar, a 46-year-old worker from Bihar state, located in the neighborhood protection force.

When the infection tends to decrease in India is also the time when the people start to neglect translation measures.

People have lost patience and risks out of the house without wearing a mask.

But in Paharganj, people don't know who has been vaccinated.

When India launches its world's largest vaccination campaign, Rajesh Bhusan Health Minister promises that every people want to inject, will have vaccines, targeting vaccination for most mature populations later this year

However, the campaign has stumbled with many challenges, including vaccines and logistics obstacles.

In order to be vaccinated, people have to register on the government's Cowin online portal, then receive the code via mobile phone.

Jeevan Kumar is one of millions of Indians without smartphones, making them difficult to sign up for immunization.

This is impossible with many people in a country where the Internet access rate is only approximately 45%, meaning that only about 624 million Internet users are over 1.39 billion people, according to DataReportal.

This fact can be most visible in slums, where most people do not own mobile phones.

If the government says everyone should take vaccines, so why are we deceive aside, Kumar asks the question.

The Indian Supreme Court spoke up with people like Kumar, criticizing government immunization policies.

Jan Pahal, a NGO in New Delhi, is trying to narrow the gap in this technology.

Our volunteers will help people who do not know how or simply register for vaccines that do not have a mobile phone.

But in the country where many people don't even have both identification documents like India, the complex vaccination process becomes even more difficult.

Our organization established 10 night stays in Delhi and some people who went to us without any custom papers.

An Indian slums.

But non-governmental organizations like Jan Pahal must admit this is all they can do.

Meanwhile, the psychology of vaccination is also hindering immunizations.

Women are the most hesitors.

The rumors of vaccination can interrupt the menstrual cycle and reduce fertility, contributing to the fear in Indian women, making the vaccination rate inclined to the south.

Extinguishing rumors and such conspiracy theory is a difficult task for Indian health officials.

We must convince the people, knock on each house and persuade women to stop hesitation.

But when Dharmedra Kumar asked a temporary residence camped by the NGO to propagandize the awareness of the vaccine, the people there were hesitant, showing great challenges that the Indian government faced the war
