No Lessons Learnt No space for rational advise’
Weeks have gone by since the disastrous second Covid-19 wave unfolded, but the Modi government refuses to realise the folly of its ways and rectify its policies.
The Supreme Court hearing the Covid pandemic issue had raised valid questions and expressed reservations about the vaccine policy of the centre. The three-member bench, headed by Justice DY Chandrachud, had asked the government to reconsider the existing policy and suggested that the centre should decide on the allocation of vaccines to states and the delivery schedule, instead of leaving it to the states to negotiate with the two vaccine manufacturing companies. This, they said, would “produce chaos and uncertainty”.
