New Delhi/IBNS: The Supreme Court on Thursday asked the central government to be ready for the third wave of Covid-19 at a time the country is devastated by the second wave of the pandemic, media reports said.
The court has asked the Centre to prepare buffer stock of oxygen.
"We need to prepare for the third wave of Covid-19. There are reports of children being affected. We need to create a buffer stock of oxygen as soon as possible," the top court said as quoted by Times Now.
It added, "If you (Centre) make an error in policy framing, then, you will be held responsible and accountable for it."
