The Centre should ensure that Delhi receives its full 480 Metric Tonne quota of oxygen and any non-compliance "will be seen very seriously as this is likely to result in grave loss of life," the Delhi High Court said today amid a desperate oxygen crisis in the national capital. At the end of a three-day hearing where the Centre's actions drew strong reprimand, the court ordered the release of Delhi's full quota of oxygen. In the backdrop of tankers being waylaid in some states, especially Haryana, the court also said they should be brought in through a special corridor and paramilitary security.
