Delhi Oxygen Shortage: Delhi's hospitals have been sending desperate appeals for medical oxygen.
New Delhi:
The central government has to supply 700 metric tonnes of medical oxygen to Delhi every day till further orders, the Supreme Court said this morning, as top hospitals in the national capital continue to struggle to tackle the unprecedented rise in Covid infections.
"When we say 700 metric tonnes, it means (the amount of medical oxygen to be supplied) every day to Delhi. Please do not drive us to a situation to take coercive steps... We are clarifying that it will be 700 MT every day," the top court said in sharp remarks.
