We have also provided Pulse Oximeter to everybody so that they can monitor their oxygen levels from time to time and shift to the hospital in case their oxygen level drops. We have provided every facility and treated 3,12,000 people at home isolation. No city in India and the world have prepared as many beds as Delhi did to Coronavirus.

We have prepared 18,800.

Delhi Government not only provided services to people of Delhi but also to the ones who live outside Delhi. Delhi Government was prepared in every sense to meet the demands for an increasing number of beds." E-Vehicles Exempted From Road Tax, Announces Delhi Government.
