Sonu Sood does it again, to set up LMO plant in Atmakur

Nellore: Bollywood actor Sonu Sood, who won millions of hearts with his philanthropy during the course of the Coronavirus pandemic, has come forward to set up a Liquid Medical Oxygen plant at the district hospital in the backward Atmakur town of SPSR Nellore district in Andhra Pradesh. In his letter, the collector said, “We are receiving 9 MT Liquid Medical Oxygen from Inox, Sriperumbudur, 20 MT from Linde, Chennai, and 16 MT on alternative days from RINL, Visakhapatnam.” The present LMO supply from these plants is inadequate and many patients waiting for oxygen beds couldn't be given admissions in the hospitals due to the supply constraints of LMO, he said. “With a sense of personal gratitude for your service to the nation in distressed times, I seek your intervention to bolster the efforts of the district administration in Covid response, Chakradhar Babu requested.” Moved by the situation, Sonu Sood, who was named as an Asian celebrity in the world for his philanthropic efforts, promised to extend financial assistance to a 1.5 MT LMO plant. Sharing the information to this newspaper, industries minister and legislator of Atmakur, Mekapati Goutham Reddy profoundly thanked Sonu Sood and also commended Chakradhar Babu for his initiative.
