Hospitals should learn from present experience and set up oxygen plants: HC

A bench of Justices Vipin Sanghi and Rekha Palli said for commercial considerations, some hospitals reduce capital expenditures on things like oxygen plants which are essential in a hospital, especially the big ones. 

"Oxygen plants are essential. It is irresponsible not to have them," the bench said. 

"You (hospitals) should also learn from your experience and put up a plant," the court said while hearing several pleas, on a holiday, with regard to the oxygen crisis and other COVID-19 related issues that Delhi is grappling with.
