Swine flu: HC satisfied with Centre, Delhi govt

The Delhi High Court on Wednesday expressed satisfaction over the steps taken by the Centre and the city government in dealing with swine flu including availability of medicines and multiple testing at hospitals and laboratories. “We are satisfied with the steps already taken and being taken by the Centre and Delhi government in the matter,” a bench of Chief Justice G Rohini and Justice Rajiv Sahai Endlaw said on a plea seeking a thorough check-up of people arriving from worst-affected states at airport and railway stations. “Moreover, these are all policy and administrative matters, in which the courts ordinarily have no jurisdiction. The court is neither equipped to nor can itself take over the task of administering the city and dealing with problems thereof,” it said.
