Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal has asked for more oxygen from the Central government.
“I request the decision-makers with folded hands to provide oxygen to Delhi,” said CM.
Despite being informed that Delhi requires 976 tons of oxygen daily the city has been allotted only 490 tons of oxygen. Yesterday, Delhi received only 312 tons of oxygen. The CM asked that how will it work if so less amount of oxygen is provided.
Owing to a crisis situation in the Union Territory, the CM besides urging the Centre had also written to the other states, industrialists to provide adequate oxygen if available. Many hospitals in Delhi have issued SOS alerts as most of them are running out of oxygen due to which the treatments of COVID-19 patirnts is being halted resulting to a rise in deaths.
