He said to save lives of people, the DRDO has come up with solutions starting from formulation of 2-DG anti-Covid drug, Dipcovan, establishing oxygen plants, SpO2-based oxygen control system, setting up Covid hospitals in Delhi, Ahmedabad, Varanasi, Lucknow and Haldwani.

"Hyderabad plays a crucial role in DRDO operations. In view of the third Covid wave I appeal to establish a temporary Covid hospital with minimum of 500 beds exclusively for children". The letter stated that there are many defence department lands available in and around Hyderabad where the hospital can be established.
