I earlier said the price of 1 BEL Skanray ventilator was 2.5 lakhs.
Turns out it's actually LESS THAN 1 LAKH.
This was said on record by Dr. Hiremath (who helped design them) to @TheDailyPioneer

While the above statement by Dr. Hiremath shows they together should've cost less than 500 crores (at a price of less than 1 lakh/ventilator)
Where did 1500 crores go?

Or will you now reveal the purchase price of 1 PM CARES ventilator to the people of India & do the right thing.
