After extending its ‘Oxygen on Wheels’ (O2W) project in the national capital, Mahindra Group has rolled out this free service initiative in Punjab. As the entire nation is presently dealing with an acute shortage of medical oxygen amid the second wave of the COVID-19 pandemic, the company stepped in with the O2W project to ensure a swift supply of oxygen in most affected areas. It has partnered with civic administration and hospitals to bridge the gap between the supply and demand of medical oxygen. The company is now adding more cities to transport medical oxygen cylinders to hospitals and other medical facilities.
