425 Oxygen Plants Out Of 1,222 Sanctioned Works In India

According to the health ministry, 11 Indian states fall under the red category list for having less than 25% medical oxygen plants operational. The ministry has also said among the 1,222 sanctioned Pressure Swing Adsorption (PSA), only 425 or 35% PSAs are operational, and all the plants will be commissioned by December. However, states informed lack of equipment supply and manpower are a few reasons for the delay.
