The oxygen audit committee set up by the Supreme Court during last month’s lethal second wave of Covid-19 has concluded that the Delhi government sought four times more oxygen than what was required. <br /> <br />During the months of April-May, multiple Delhi hospitals had run out of oxygen supply with some facilities claiming critical Covid-19 patients had died due to a shortage in oxygen supply. This had triggered a war of words between the Kejriwal government and Centre. <br /> <br />With the intervention of the Delhi High Court, the Centre had revised Delhi’s oxygen allotment in those months and supplied more of the life-saving gas by cutting short on other states.
