Chennai: Madras High Court warned the Secretary of the Puducherry Head of serious consequences if the territorial administration failed to return the costs incurred by a private hospital that provided care to the Covid-19 government request.
Establishing 30 September as a deadline for breaking orders, the court said: “In the event that the status report does not show a large refund after completion, serious consequences can visit officials, especially the main secretary and other officials to the Ministry of Health.” The first bench from the Chairman of Judge Sanjib Banerjee And Judiciary PD Audikesavalu gave orders on pills moved by Anand looking for the direction of the government to disburse the promised amount.
When the request came to hear on Friday, the applicant told the court that so far there was no replacement made.
Record submissions, the court said: “sufficient time has been given to the Puducherry government to return the money paid by citizens to obtain care at private care facilities because the government medical hospital and facilities during the second surge in Covid-19 cannot acknowledge everyone.” Apart from the previous guarantee that refunds will be made and money because the personal medical facilities that have been asked for this purpose will also run out, further requests are made on behalf of the United States for status reports to be submitted, the court is added.
