Sharad Pawar got his second dose at home earlier this week
MUMBAI: “How is it that for political leaders the policy is different,” the Bombay high court asked on Friday when informed of news reports that a leader in Maharashtra was given Covid vaccine at home.
The HC was hearing a public interest litigation filed for its intervention to allow door-to-door jabs for the very elderly, bed-ridden and physically challenged. Advocates Dhruti Kapadia and Kunal had filed it to seek improvements in facilities for those aged over 75 and home-bound people.Kapadia, without mentioning NCP chief Sharad Pawar, who got the jab at home earlier this week, said, “We have been reading in the news that home vaccination has taken place.”
