 Reminder Sent to Delhi Government By NHRC

A reminder was sent to the Delhi government by the National Human Rights Commission after it failed to respond to a notice over the death of four patients at a hospital when oxygen supply failed in the intensive care unit.

"NHRC is yet to receive a response from the Delhi Government on its notice seeking a report about the alleged death of four patients at Sushruta Trauma Centre due to interruption in oxygen supply in the ICU," a statement from NHRC said.
