The Delhi High Court on Tuesday sought a reply from the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology and Central Public Information Officers (CPIOs) of its department on an RTI application seeking details of the Aarogya Setu application.
The high court was hearing the plea which also challenged the Central Information Commission’s (CIC) order discharging show-cause notices against MEITY officers without hearing the complainant. The court observed that the issue of the government health application is of "public importance".
