Delhi government hospitals at present have a capacity of 10,000 ICU beds, and a 70 per cent increase is being made to this number, Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal said Saturday.
According to doctors, a well-timed lockdown coupled with increase in resources like oxygen beds and dip in cases has led to fewer hospital admissions in Delhi.
The last time this matter flared up was when Delhi Chief Minister Rekha Gupta, in a very similar directive in April, called for the relocation of stray dogs in the capital.
Finance ministry says the proposed revamp will focus on structural reforms, rate rationalisation & ease of living, & will be deliberated upon in the coming weeks.
The project is meant to be a ‘protective shield that will keep expanding’, the PM said. It is on the lines of the ‘Golden Dome’ announced by Trump, it is learnt.
Now that both IAF and PAF have made formal claims of having shot down the other’s aircraft in the 87-hour war in May, we can ask a larger question: do such numbers really matter?
