Will have to adopt both ways

Vaccine has not been approved in India

Pfizer's vaccine was not approved in India. Actually, a condition was placed on behalf of India that only those vaccines, which will have their trial in India, will be approved. Pfizer had not conducted any vaccine trials in India, so it was not approved. In India, Covaxin and Covishield were approved because both of these vaccines were tried in the country. Covaxin was made in India only, while Covishield also had trials.
