Andhra police create green corridor for exhausted tanker driver to supply oxygen to Vijayawada hospital

After a tanker went off the radar, the Andhra Pradesh found its driver taking a break in Dharmavaram. To ensure that the crucial supply of oxygen reaches Vijayawada hospital on time, Andhra Pradesh created a green corridor for the tanker.

The Andhra Pradesh Police created a green corridor for an oxygen tanker to travel from Dharmavaram to Vijayawada in the wee hours of Friday. Police officials said they were informed on Thursday night that a tanker was sent to Odisha’s Angul to carry oxygen for treatment of over 400 patients admitted to Government General Hospital in Vijayawada. The truck, however, had gone off the radar on its way back to Vijayawada and couldn’t be tracked on the GPS system.
