Greeva Garg –
Advocate Rajesh Inamdar representing the Petitioner Nilesh Navlakha submitted his suggestions in a Public Interest Litigation (PIL) to the Bombay High Court regarding the management measures against the third wave of Covid-19 in Maharashtra
The Bench of Chief Justice Dipankar Datta and Justice GS Kulkarni decided to take up suggestions filed by Petitioner Nilesh Navlakha in his PIL after hearing various PILs on COVID management.
The Petitioner submitted ten-point suggestions notifying the reports of top Government Scientists and Experts that, third wave is deadlier and more terrifying than the second wave in India.
The suggestions included minimizing overcrowding by restricting public events, banning or restricting traditional ways of campaigning in local body polls and identifying families in need of assistance with food grains.
The Director of All India Institute of Medical Science (AIIMS), Randeep Guleria, warned against the third wave of Covid-19 disease and said that, “It could strike the country in the next six to eight weeks.”
Due to fear of the third wave the Bombay High Court directed the State Government to spread proper information in regard to preventing the worst scenario in the State.
