Gautam Gambhir Foundation guilty of hoarding Fabiflu, drugs controller tells Delhi HC

AAP MLA Praveen Kumar had also been found guilty for similar offences and action will be taken against him, it says

The drugs controller of Delhi on Thursday informed the Delhi High Court that the Gautam Gambhir Foundation (GGF) had been found guilty of unauthorisedly stocking, procuring and distributing Fabiflu (medicine) to COVID-19 patients. A bench of Justice Vipin Sanghi and Justice Jasmeet Singh told the drugs controller to take action in the case. “Firstly, you do charity for charity. Doing charity for some other reason is no charity. We want to curb this practice and for this, we want you [drugs controller] to take action,” it said. Noting the manner in which cricketer-turned-politician Gautam Gambhir procured huge quantity of the drug when it was in short supply in the city, the court stated, “This was certainly not the way. In this pandemic, it should not be done just because people have means to do it. It should not be that I will do it for one class or for my constituency people and it should not be for popularity”.
