Politicians in Indore stopped the tanker carrying 30 tonnes of oxygen twice for photo ops and a puja before it could be unloaded
INDORE: A tanker carrying 30 tonnes of oxygen from Gujarat arrived in Covid-battered Indore on Saturday night. But while the city was counting its breaths, politicians made a media spectacle of it, holding it up for photo ops at two places before it could start unloading.
This, despite CM Shivraj Singh Chouhan’s orders that oxygen tankers be given ambulance status and be escorted by police to ensure there is no hold-up. The tanker driver had set off from Jamnagar at 1am, stopping only once for lunch during the 700km journey. “I have not blinked all the way. We are aware of how important oxygen is during Covid times,” driver Shailendra Kushwah told TOI at 11.30pm on Saturday.
