Tendulkar&rsquo;s donation of Rs 1 crore to &lsquo;Mission Oxygen&rsquo; in its endeavour to procure and provide life-saving oxygen concentrators to hospitals across the nation in this time of need is incredibly&nbsp;heart-warming,&rdquo; read a statement from Mission Oxygen, which is a fund-raising initiative by Delhi-NCR based entrepreneurs for importing the machines and donating them to hospitals in need.<br />
