North Karnataka districts will get more oxygen plants in a few weeks, Deputy Chief Minister and Belagavi district in-charge Govind Karjol said in Belagavi on Thursday. The State government has been informed that ONGC and MRPL will come up with oxygen plants in Belagavi, Haveri, Gadag, Uttara Kannada and Ballari districts. “We have requested the Union government to direct ONGC to set up a similar plant in Bagalkot also,” he said at a meeting of officers and legislators at the government guesthouse. He asked Deputy Commissioner K. Harish Kumar to send a detailed report after identifying a suitable place for the plant in Belagavi district. Dr. Kumar said that preparations had begun on the premises of the Belagavi Institute of Medical Sciences to set up another captive oxygen plant. “The 500 litre capacity plant will start operations in three weeks,’’ the Deputy Commissioner said.More Related News
