 AAP's national conver and Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal on Saturday asked party volunteers in Mumbai to reach out to people living in every corner of city to check ir oxygen levels and help in ir fight against COVID-19. In a video conference, Kejriwal told AAP volunteers that reaching out to every household will t only help Mumbaikars but will also be beneficial for party in expanding its reach and building its base in city.

"When you go and check people's oxygen levels, it gives you a very big opportunity to expand party's reach. So I request you to plan this campaign carefully. On every booth, you need to identify an oximitra and it would be his/her responsibility to check oxygen level of every household," he said.

Also, give m a pamphlet of AAP where our helpline numbers would be written. y can contact us if y feel breathlessness or have fever, Delhi chief minister ded. Kejriwal urged volunteers to meticulously plan campaign and submit ir plan of action in next six days.

We need to plan it properly and scale it up. Till time campaign is t planned properly, it is just romanticism. Party units in Uttarakhand, UP, Punjab, Goa have me ir plans so my request is that you also make a plan to reach out to 10,000 booths n we will be able to reach every corner of Mumbai, he told volunteers.

"A lot of people tell me that y want to fight upcoming elections in Mumbai but for that we need to scale up our organisation. This is a good beginning. If you can send me a plan in next four to six days, n we can help you too," Kejriwal ded.

ting that state governments are doing ir job, chief minister said pandemic is such a big crisis that everyone needs to join hands to dress it.

"Most deaths in corona occur because of a drop in oxygen level. If someone's oxygen level is lower than 90, n he must be taken to hospital immediately. We are just checking oxygen levels to warn people and it can even save people's lives. Even if campaign is able to save one life, n also it is worth it," he ded.

On August 15, Kejriwal h anunced that Aam Ami Party would set up centres for testing saturation of oxygen content in blood in 30,000 vills across country.

chief minister said that he has alrey received a commitment for 30,000 oximeters from people. Oximeters help in measuring oxygen level and are found to be extremely useful for coronavirus patients who in many cases battle breathlessness due to drop in oxygen levels.
