Court expresses displeasure on govt’s conduct of appointing commission of inquiry sans its prior permission
In a major setback to the State government, the High Court of Karnataka on Wednesday directed the Chief Secretary to immediately seize all the relevant records in the offices of the Deputy Commissioners of Chamarajanagar and Mysuru districts, and the Chamarajanagar district hospital on oxygen supply and correspondences amongst the authorities in the two districts for the relevant period.
The court issued this direction after taking serious exception to the decision of the State government to set up a commission of inquiry under the Commission of Inquiry Act, 1952, and appointing a retired judge to probe incident of 24 COVID-19 patients in Chamarajanagar without taking prior approval from the court.
