He said that the infection rate in Delhi has reached 37 per cent. Today, however, the infection rate has come down to 30 per cent. I am not saying that the infection rate is coming down. It can also increase. So, we are working with full vigilance.
There is complete support from the central government. Yesterday, meetings of different ministries were held with officials of the Central government and the government of Delhi. The central government is also making efforts to get full oxygen to Delhi. But this problem still remains.

He informed that Delhi has now allocated 490 MT of oxygen. Yesterday, the central government added another 10 tonnes. But oxygen is reaching only 335 MT in Delhi. We and our officers are engaged day and night. In many places we have been successful, some places have also failed. But we are working hard. But there is a very difficult situation.
We have created a portal on which, from the oxygen manufacturer to the hospitals, they will have to tell in 2-2 hours what their status is? Which will continue to know in which hospital the oxygen is left for what time. So that, appropriate steps can be taken.
