At the same time, the supplier AgVa Healthcare had quoted a price of Rs 1,50,000 per ventilator.
 
Not the question arises is , “Do the 50,000 ventilators ordered through PM CARES include the earlier order of 40,000 ventilators by government or is it separate? for which stoic silence came as response from Government authorities  
 
“As per PMO’s release, per ventilator price comes out as Rs 4,00,000.
 
When the ventilator is available at Rs 1,50,000 per piece then why PM CARES had allocated Rs 4,00,000 per ventilator? . the differnce in pricing each ventilator is 2.5 Lakhs and if calcualted for 50000 units means 1250 Crores Indian Rupees
Being the case where is this 1250 Crores money going?” Opposition party asked
 
Panel of medical experts who had asserted that ventilators provided by AgVa Healthcare are of sub-standard quality.
Being the case Why government is compromising the health of patients with sub-standard equipments asks Insiders
 
“Why Government is compromising the health of lakhs of patients with sub-standard equipment’s at such a critical time?”
 
Also it should be fact to note that Ventilator manufacturers are now seeking a nod from the Centre to export their products at a time when hospitals in India are running out of ICU beds.
