According to sources, oxygen from Rourkela Steel Plant, Tata Steel, and JSPL will be sent to Delhi, which is grappling with shortage amid the COVID-19 upsurge.

Maharashtra and Delhi Chief Ministers have thanked their Odisha counterpart Naveen Patnaik for facilitating the early supply of their quota of oxygen from the state.
