Abu Dhabi’s BAPS Hindu Mandir is working to create a supply chain of oxygen tanks and cylinders to provide more than 400 metric tonnes of liquid oxygen every month to India from this week. The first batch of supplies includes 44 mt of liquid oxygen, 30,000 litres of medical oxygen gas in 600 cylinders, and 130 oxygen concentrators, said Pujya Swami Brahmaviharidas, a spiritual leader of BAPS Hindu Mandir.
India is being tested, and millions of people are impacted, while thousands have lost their lives already. On this initiative, the temple authorities said,
“At this urgent time of need, India’s friends and widespread diaspora have activated themselves on a large scale to help Indians. India’s great ally, the UAE, has dedicated itself to support our country in every way possible. Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan, the Minister for Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation has recently expressed the nation’s sentiment in committing the UAE’s full support and keenness to dedicate every necessary resource in supporting India’s raging battle with Covid-19.”
