Vijayawada, May 11 (UNI) The Telugu Desam Party (TDP) on Tuesday formed a fact-finding committee with seven members to look into the tragic death of many Covid patients due to lack of timely oxygen supply at the Ruia Hospital in Tirupati on Monday night.
The committee was formed at the instructions of party National President and former Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu.
The fact finding committee would consist of Tirupati Parliamentary Constituency party President G. Narasimha Yadav, former Minister N. Amarnath Reddy, party National General Secretary Nallari Kishore Kumar Reddy, former MLA M. Sugunamma, Chittoor parliamentary constituency Party President Pulivarthy Nani, Bathyala Chengalrayudu and Mabbu Devanarayana Reddy.
In a statement here, TDP Andhra Pradesh Unit President K. Atchannaidu alleged that the state Government was not taking sufficient measures to save the lives of the people and it was clearly evident from how a human tragedy has taken place at the SVR Ruia Hospital now.
He lashed out that the Government abdicated its responsibility at a very critical time when the Coronavirus second wave was shaking up lakhs of people all over the state. No proper treatment was being provided to the infected patients, Mr Atchannaidu added.
The TDP state president said that already, many Covid patients have died due to lack of oxygen supply at different hospitals in all parts of the state.
The Government was not showing any sympathy to the suffering victims and their relatives. The actual details of the Ruia oxygen tragedy were not being given to the public. The fact finding committee would go into these aspects and find out the actual reasons for the human tragedy, he said.(UNI)
