Covid Vaccination: Court said Centre s approach against Covid should be like a surgical strike
Mumbai:
The Bombay High Court today said the Centre s approach against COVID-19, which is the society s biggest enemy at present, should be like a surgical strike instead of standing at the borders waiting for the virus to come out.
A division bench of Chief Justice Dipankar Datta and Justice GS Kulkarni said the Union government s new near to home vaccination programme was like waiting for the virus carrier to come to the Centre. Coronavirus is our biggest enemy. We need to strike it down. The enemy is residing in certain areas and in some people who are unable to come out. Your (government) approach should be like a surgical strike. You are standing at the borders waiting for the virus carrier to come to you. You are not entering the enemy territory, Chief Justice Datta said.
