Hello,
PCV vaccination is now available in Delhi government hospital.
It's required for child for future protection.
Not a optional now, but it is costly in private hospital.
Take care.

Yes it is an optional vaccine, but that does not mean it is not useful. Pneumococcal infections can cause pneumonia meningitis and other bacterial infections. These are serious issues that if gets worse needs ICU admission
Next Steps
It is not available in the government hospitals and it is not marked in the govt hospital immunisation cards. It is quite expensive too, rate depends on the brands
