State-owned Bharat Heavy Electricals Limited (BHEL) through its manufacturing facilities in Bhopal and Haridwar has begun the supply of oxygen to hospitals in their vicinity to help meet the surge in demand due to a fresh burst of COVID-19 cases, reports Economic Times.
BHEL's plant in Madhya Pradesh (MP)'s Bhopal is supplying more than 6,000 cubic meters of oxygen gas daily. The facility provided the hospitals in the Bhopal area with 975 cylinders of oxygen on bygone Friday (23 April) alone.
Similarly, the Haridwar facility is presently supplying as many as 700 cylinders of oxygen and is in the process of ramping up the supply of cylinders containing oxygen to about 2,200 per day. Once its ongoing infrastructure upgrade is completed, the facility will be able to supply about 16,000 cubic metres of oxygen per day.
Presently BHEL is generating oxygen at the aforementioned two facilities by using their captive units which have been installed to meet their normal manufacturing requirements. BHEL is also in the process of beginning production and supply of oxygen from its other units.
Introducing ElectionsHQ + 50 Ground Reports Project
The 2024 elections might seem easy to guess, but there are some important questions that shouldn't be missed.
Do freebies still sway voters? Do people prioritise infrastructure when voting? How will Punjab vote?
The answers to these questions provide great insights into where we, as a country, are headed in the years to come.
Swarajya is starting a project with an aim to do 50 solid ground stories and a smart commentary service on WhatsApp, a one-of-a-kind. We'd love your support during this election season.
