The paramilitary force said there is a huge influx of patients demanding admission at the facility and it has requested the Delhi government to increase oxygen supply so that admissions are increased. As per the latest available data of the SPCCC, the facility has taken a total of 228 patients till now since it began operations on April 26. Fifty-two patients were admitted on Wednesday.
