Kejriwal as SC Audit Team Head Says Delhi’s ‘Exaggerated’ Oxygen Report Not Final
If we are done fighting over oxygen, let’s get to work, said Delhi chief minister Arvind Kejriwal on Saturday, a day after a Supreme Court-appointed panel report stated that the national capital’s oxygen needs were “exaggerated” by four times during the second Covid wave. This led the BJP to charge the AAP dispensation of “criminal negligence”, while the CM-led party accused the saffron party of “cooking up” such a report.
“If you are done fighting over oxygen, let us do some work? Let’s make such a system together where no one lacks oxygen in the third wave. In the second wave, people faced severe shortage. Now this should not happen in the third wave,” Kejriwal tweeted.
The chief minister further said that if we amongst ourselves, then coronavirus will win. “If we fight together, the country will win,” he added.
ऑक्सिजन पर आपका झगड़ा खतम हो गया हो तो थोड़ा काम कर लें?आइए मिलकर ऐसी व्यवस्था बनाते हैं कि तीसरी वेव में किसी को ऑक्सिजन की कमी ना हो। दूसरी लहर में लोगों को ऑक्सिजन की भीषण कमी हुई।अब तीसरी लहर में ऐसा ना हो।
आपस में लड़ेंगे तो करोना जीत जाएगा। मिलकर लड़ेंगे तो देश जीतेगा

Meanwhile, AIIMS director Dr Randeep Guleria has said that it would not be correct to say that Delhi “exaggerated” its oxygen needs. “Delhi oxygen audit is an interim report. We should wait for the final report,” Guleria, who heads the sub group that led the audit, was quoted as saying by NDTV.
