Sisodia said, "We've sent a file to LG for his approval to set up a high-level committee for a probe to find out how many Ccovid-19 patients died due to oxygen shortage. The Deputy chief minister said, "Being a responsible government, we should not hide deaths due to shortage of medical oxygen. If we cover or hide deaths due to oxygen shortage then it is not good governance." I have also briefed him how Delhi struggled for medical oxygen during the second wave of Covid-19 in April-May." In June, the Delhi government had formed a four-member expert committee to look into deaths due to the shortage of oxygen during the second wave of the Covid-19 pandemic.
