SC Asks Centre To Present "National Plan" On Oxygen, Vaccine Supply

Taking suo moto cognizance, the Supreme Court has asked the Centre to present a "national plan" on oxygen supply, essential drugs and vaccination methods in a hearing scheduled on April 23. Reportedly, six High Courts including Delhi, Bombay, Sikkim and Allahabad are hearing petitions over the aforementioned issues. The SC said while HCs are exercising their jurisdiction in public interest, some kind of confusion and diversion of resources persist.
