As COVID-19 cases in the national capital continues to rise at an alarming rate, the Delhi government on Sunday requested the Indian Railways to arrange COVID beds at Anand Vihar and Shakur Basti railway station.
The government also asked for logistical support, medical staff and oxygen facilities on an emergent basis and will identify more facilities up to the level of 5,000 beds as was done last year.
Meanwhile, sources confirmed that the Delhi government will register FIRs against two private hospitals under the Delhi Disaster Management Act for showing inaccurate data regarding beds on the government’s COVID app.
