Delhi Govt Forms Panel to Expedite Covid Compensation
The Delhi government is setting up a special team to help families who lost loved ones to COVID-19 get the financial help they were promised.
Many families didn't get the money earlier, so this new team will review the cases and give out compensation.
The government says this is because the previous system did not reach all the eligible families.
They are also making sure hospitals have enough beds, medicine, and oxygen, even though COVID-19 isn't a big problem right now.
This group is made up of ministers from different departments and they will look at each family's situation to decide who gets the money.
Over 26,700 people in Delhi died due to Covid-related complications.
