Can't Waste A Single Minute: Gurgaon Non-Profit Gives Oxygen Cylinders For Free

Hundreds from the city and outside stood in the long meandering queue for oxygen cylinders.

As India battles an acute oxygen emergency and hospitals put out SOS alerts on social media amid a massive spike in cases, changemakers and individuals on the ground are helping desperate and helpless families hit by the deadly virus. One of them is a Gurgaon-based NGO Hemkunt Foundation that is ensuring immediate help to critical Covid patients by providing oxygen cylinders. On Thursday, NDTV visited the site of their "oxygen cylinder drive" in Gurgaon. Hundreds from the city and outside stood in the long meandering queue for oxygen cylinders. Those who could afford to pay, deposited a token money of Rs 10,000 - refundable upon returning the cylinder - and those who couldn't were given the cylinders at no cost.
