The chief minister said the authorities have planned to increase bed capacity in Rajkot to 3,500 in the coming days to deal with the rising number of COVID-19 cases.
“We have already planned to ramp up bed capacity to 3,500. I have also asked officials to double the number of tests to detect the maximum number of positive patients.
“I have also sanctioned an additional aid of Rs 5 crore to Rajkot,” said Rupani.
He said Rajkot would also get a new X-ray machine and more testing kits.
On the lines of Ahmedabad, all vegetable vendors, who fall in the “super spreader” category, will be tested for coronavirus and given passes by the Rajkot civic body to continue their business, Rupani added.
From Rajkot, the CM and his team headed to Vadodara to review the coronavirus situation in the district.
