The State needs 300 metric tonnes daily but receiving only about 195 MT, says party MP
A delegation of Congress parliamentarians from Punjab will seek time from Union Home Minister Amit Shah and Health Minister Harsh Vardhan to raise the issue of severe oxygen shortage faced by the State. The decision was taken after a marathon review meeting of party leaders that took place virtually with Chief Minister Captain Amarinder Singh. A Lok Sabha member told The Hindu that Punjab needed about 300 metric tonnes (MTs) of oxygen daily but was receiving only about 195 MT. Even after adding 30 MT of oxygen locally produced, the State was facing a shortfall of about 75 MT.More Related News
