Chief Secretary Somesh Kumar has directed the officials concerned to work with coordination for ensuring uninterrupted supply and speedy transportation of medical oxygen tankers. The Transport department should form teams with experts in logistics for transporting oxygen tankers to and from Angur, Odisha, and Ballari in Karnataka in shortest possible time. The officials were directed to discuss with their Railway counterparts for providing green channel facility for non-stop movement of oxygen for minimizing transportation time from six days to three days. Steps should be taken to provide police escort along with mechanics and other requirements to avoid problems en route and ensure effective movement of oxygen all through.
