B) Serum Institute of India
C) Biological E
D) Ranbaxy

Correct Answer is Bharat Biotech.

The person being felicitated in this picture is the Chairman and Managing Director of Bharat Biotech firm that came up with its own COVID-19 vaccine.

Bharat Biotech produced COVAXIN®, India’s indigenous COVID-19 vaccine, in conjunction with the Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR) – National Institute of Virology (NIV).

Bharat Biotech’s BSL-3 (Bio-Safety Level 3) high containment facility develops and manufactures the indigenous, inactivated vaccine.

The vaccine is being developed using a platform derived from Whole-Virion Inactivated Vero Cells. Because inactivated vaccinations do not multiply, they are unlikely to revert and cause disease. They include dead viruses that are unable to infect humans but can nevertheless teach the immune system to produce a defensive response in the face of infection.
