Foreign embassies in New Delhi have also been affected by India's Koro crisis. Amid the Corona crisis, the Youth Congress has been embroiled in controversy over the supply of medical oxygen to the Philippine embassy. Members of the Youth Congress posted a video on Twitter on May 1 delivering oxygen cylinders to the Philippine embassy. Senior Congress leader Jairam Ramesh retweeted the video and asked the External Affairs Ministry whether India's External Affairs Ministry was asleep.

External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar wrote in response to the tweet on May 2 that the Philippine embassy has been contacted and no one there is suffering from corona. He also posted that all this is being done for cheap popularity by targeting Jairam Ramesh and that oxygen should reach the people in need.

Not to be outdone, the Youth Congress posted a screenshot on Twitter requesting an oxygen cylinder from the Philippine embassy, ​​saying, "The cylinders were delivered because the Philippine embassy requested oxygen facility for 2 Kovid patients in an emergency." The embassy also sent us a thank you message on Facebook after the cylinder was delivered. All screenshots are attached. Names and numbers have been hidden to maintain the dignity of the bus privacy.

Jairam Ramesh retweeted the Youth Congress tweet and once again targeted External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar and wrote, "Hon'ble Minister, what will you say now?" In his reply, Jaishankar wrote, "All I can say is don't waste oxygen either in fact or in imagination." The State Department never sleeps. Good night

Jairam Ramesh wrote in his reply on Monday morning, "Hon'ble Minister, taxes are stronger than narratives. No image management can hide the fact that people are dying without oxygen. Please do your job, don't discredit those who are helping. The Youth Congress has paved the way and I am proud of it. ' The whole issue became very controversial on Sunday and the External Affairs Ministry held a press conference on Sunday urging foreign embassies not to deposit medical supplies in harsh words.
