Haryana Orders Oxygen Preparedness Drills in All Health Facilities
The Haryana government is making sure hospitals are ready for any future increase in patients with breathing problems.
They're checking if there's enough oxygen, if the machines that make oxygen are working, and if the oxygen delivery systems are ready to go.
Every hospital in the state will be doing these checks and reporting back to the government.
This is to ensure hospitals can handle any increase in patients with breathing problems.

The drills will assess oxygen availability and functionality of PSA plants.
All districts must submit their reports by Monday evening.
