New Delhi, Jun 28 (UNI) Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia on Sunday said CM Arvind Kejriwal believes that battle against Corona is very big and no individual person or agency can deal with it alone, and so he has brought everyone together and his efforts seem to be paying off.
“Our Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal sought help and support of every agency to battle corona in Delhi. We got tremendous support from Central govt, religious organisations like Radha Swami Satsang, Akshardham Temple trust, Terapanthi, various hotels, banquets halls, private hospitals and NGOs like Doctors for U etc,” Mr Sisodia said in a statement.
“In the first week of June, there was a sudden spike in corona cases. There was a shortage of beds and testing. CM immediately reserved 40 per cent beds in all big private hospitals for COVID in addition to declaring some big hospitals like GTB hospital as COVID hospitals. Hotels were converted into hospitals and 3500 beds were prepared in hotels which addressed the shortage of beds,” he said.
