JAMMU, May 26: Maruti Suzuki India Limited (MSIL), the largest automobile manufacturer of the country has agreed to install two Oxygen PSA Generator Plants of 500 litres per minute (LPM) capacity each in Jammu and Kashmir under Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR).
Responding to the appeal of the Lt Governor, J&K UT, Manoj Sinha to the corporates to come forward to help set up Oxygen Generator Plants in the Union Territory, MSIL has offered to install one plant each in Jammu and Srinagar Medical Colleges to strengthen the health infrastructure of the two premier health institutions of the UT.
Devender Singh Rana, former Legislator and Chairman Vehicleades Group of Companies conveyed the decision of Maruti Suzuki India Limited to Manoj Sinha, here this evening. Rana had earlier requested MSIL to support healthcare efforts during the COVID pandemic in J&K as a goodwill gesture.
The Lt Governor appealed to other corporates also to emulate MSIL and come forward to supplement the efforts of the Government to fight the pandemic. He directed Atal Dulloo, Financial Commissioner Health and Medical Education to coordinate with MSIL the process of early installation of the two plants.
The two Oxygen PSA Generator Plants for J&K are likely to reach the UT by the first week of June.
