Earlier, WB CM Mamata wrote a letter to PM Modi on Friday requesting an increase in the allocation of oxygen. In the letter Mamata has asked the Centre to provide 550MT of oxygen to West Bengal on a daily basis instead of 308MT which was fixed earlier.
She said in her letter, “Consumption of MO (medical oxygen0 is increasing rapidly due to increase in COVID positive cases in the State. It has gone upto 470MT per day in the last 24 hours and expected to increase to 550MT per day in next 7 to 8 days.”
CM Mamata also claimed that around 560MT of oxygen is produced in West Bengal on a daily basis. But, the Central govt. has increased the allocation of MO produced in the State to other states from 230MT to 360MT. This has left West Bengal with only 308MT of medical oxygen per day for the last 10 days.
