RANCHI: The Jharkhand high court on Friday made a stern observation against the state government for “not following the law” while providing treatment to RJD chief Lalu Prasad at Rajendra Institute of Medical Sciences (Rims).
The high court also said that the state ought to practice the norms “rather than provide facilities to people with connections”.
The court of Justice Aparesh Kumar Singh was hearing a petition on the violation of the jail manual in terms of providing treatment to Lalu while he was kept at the Rims director’s bungalow to avoid contraction of Covid-19.
