The Centre Tuesday informed the Delhi High Court that pricing authority NPPA has initiated the process to fix a formula to determine the MRP of oxygen concentrators, needed for COVID-19 treatment, as people were being charged exorbitantly. The process for fixing the formula for MRP is likely to be concluded and the court will be informed about the development on May 31, the Centre said. A bench of Justices Vipin Sanghi and Jasmeet Singh asked the Centre s counsel to take instructions and file a report before May 31. Justice Sanghi observed that the pricing formula was important as most of the manufacturers were not putting MRP or maximum retail price on oxygen concentrators and are not readily available in shops.
The court observed that while BJP MP Gautam Gambhir must have been distributing medicines with the best of intentions, the gesture unintentionally did a disservice

NEW DELHI: The Delhi High Court Tuesday refused to look into the issue of proposed march by farmers into the national capital on Wednesday (May 26) as it marks six months of their protest against the new farm laws.
An oral mention was made to stop farmers from moving towards Delhi borders and directions for the police to enforce COVID guidelines so that the event does not turn into super spreader.
