Delhi getting excess oxygen, using it inefficiently: Centre

  • 3 years ago
Central government agencies have carried out a survey of 62 major government and private hospitals and 11 oxygen refilling stations in Delhi, and found that the oxygen provided to the city is being "inefficiently used" and possibly even being "diverted to black market", central government sources said.

They added that said such diversion of oxygen in Delhi is impacting the national supply chain.

The central government sources said the Delhi government ought to speed up its distribution of medical oxygen. They claimed that Delhi is getting "excess supply" and it "does not have space to store it".

This lack of adequate storage is allegedly resulting in delaying the turnaround of incoming oxygen tankers.
