‘Don't threaten doctors and health workers, support them’: Supreme Court to Delhi government
Supreme Court heard the Suo Motu Cognisance (SMC) matter related to the 'proper treatment of coronavirus patients and dignified handling of bodies in government hospitals'. The top court's three-judge bench asked the Delhi government that "What has Delhi done?"
"Please protect doctors, nurses. They are Corona-warriors. You (Delhi government) do not want the truth to come out. Several videos have come out," the apex court said in a statement.
"Don't shoot the messenger, don't threaten doctors and health workers, support them," Supreme Court told the Delhi Government.
Likewise, the Supreme Court said that "You can't suppress the truth. Why did you suspend a doctor who made a video of the pathetic conditions of one of your hospitals?" It also asked the Delhi government to file an affidavit in the case. Furthermore, the top court adjourned the matter to the next hearing on Friday.
