Delhi's Madhukar Rainbow Children hospital on Sunday sounded alert over oxygen shortage regularly despite it claiming to be the city's southern region's only hospital that has been admitting pregnant women infected with COVID-19.

The 130-bedded hospital sent an SOS message through its Twitter handle after it again faced a similar issue on Sunday when the oxygen availability at the facility for the day was estimated till noon.

Based in south Delhi's Malviya Nagar area, the hospital currently admitted 80-90 COVID patients that included pregnant women and children-- some in ICU and NICU.

Soon after the SOS message was posted by the hospital, AAP MLA Raghav Chadha said, "We have arranged five D Type oxygen cylinders for Rainbow Children's Hospital, from our Rajghat Response Point. The govt's oxygen reserves are extremely limited due to reduced oxygen supply to Delhi, but we are doing everything possible to avert any untoward incident."
