Oxygen crisis: Is UP in denial about shortage? | Ground Report

On April 30, Deepak Chhabra stood inside the #Covid emergency ward at #Meerut’s Lala Lajpat Rai Memorial Medical College, giving real-time updates of his wife Lata’s condition to his relatives. Deepak and Lata got married a couple of months ago.

Half an hour later, Deepak stood weeping outside. “Mausi, she died,” he shouted into the phone. “She said she would be by my side for life. But she left me.”

In the #Surajkund crematorium’s register, in the space intended for cause of death, Deepak wrote three words beneath Lata’s name: “lack of oxygen”.
