‘It has been increased from 419 tonnes to 519 tonnes a day’
The Centre on Wednesday informed the Madras High Court that it had increased the allocation of oxygen to Tamil Nadu, under the National Oxygen Plan, from 419 tonnes to 519 tonnes a day. Additional Solicitor General R. Sankaranarayanan made the submission before Chief Justice Sanjib Banerjee and Justice Senthilkumar Ramamoorthy during the hearing of a suo motu public interest litigation petition taken up by the court to monitor the fight against COVID-19. When the Chief Justice said the State’s requirement might shoot up to over 800 tonnes a day if the number of cases continued to rise, and sought to know of alternative arrangements, the ASG said he had discussed with officials concerned the suggestion made by the court on establishing oxygen generation plants in Tamil Nadu through the Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO).
