The Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) has not revealed any data regarding the availability of beds for COVID-19 patients in city hospitals leading to citizens having to wait for hours or even days to be able to get admitted, local leaders have alleged.

The civic body initially began treating Corona patients at Kasturba Hospital with its 25 beds that eventually went up to 150. On March 26, the BMC also declared the names of seven civic-run hospitals and 11 private hospitals that could treat patients.
