The Patna High Court on Friday observed that the Bihar government's reluctance to put the state's COVID-19 death count in the public domain is uncalled for. A division bench comprising Chief Justice Sanjay Karol and Justice S Kumar made the observation while hearing a PIL filed by Shivani Kaushik and others over Covid management. "For whatever reasons, the state government is most reluctant to put the COVID-19 death count in the public domain." "In our considered view, the resistance is uncalled for, for such action is neither protected by any law nor is in consonance with settled principles of good governance," the court said.More Related News
