551 oxygen plants will be set up in India from the PM Cares fund created during the Corona epidemic last year.
The Press Information Bureau (PIB) has given this information by releasing a release citing the Prime Minister’s Office a while back.
It has been said in the release that 551 PSA Oxygen plants will be set up in government hospitals in district headquarters in different parts of the country.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi has said that these plants will be commissioned as soon as possible.
The work of setting up and commissioning an oxygen plant will be under the supervision of the Union Health Ministry.
The release said that earlier Rs 201.558 crore was allocated from the PM Cares Fund to set up 162 oxygen plants.
For the last few days, people were also asking questions on social media that when the country is going through the worst phase of the epidemic, then what is PM Cares helping in such a time. (PTK)
