Centre’s status report does not indicate that buffer stock is actually for the use of Delhi, says court.
The Delhi High Court on Wednesday remarked there was lack of clarity on the steps taken by the Centre for setting up buffer stock of liquid medical oxygen (LMO) in the capital to deal with the COVID-19 pandemic even as a third wave is anticipated. “Today the situation may look fine but then everyone saw what happened in April-May. There is no escape from this [buffer stock of LMO]. This is like insurance,” the Bench of Justice Vipin Sanghi and Justice Jasmeet Singh said. The Bench said the status report filed by the Centre does not indicate that buffer stock of LMO is actually created for the use of Delhi and it only talks of enhancement of oxygen storage capacity here.More Related News
