Mumbai: The Aurangabad bench of the Bombay High Court has slammed the Central government after a case of bad ventilators came to light. In fact, the Bench says that the Central Government is more concerned about companies manufacturing such bad ventilators than people's lives. In fact, at present, it has been reported in the court by some hospitals that out of 150 ventilators received from the Centre under the PM Cares Fund, 113 ventilators are out of order. The high court had last Tuesday asked the Centre what measures the Centre has for poor ventilators.
After learning this, Assistant Solicitor General Ajay Talhar, on behalf of the Union Health Ministry, told the court last Friday that "These 150 ventilators were not supplied under the PM Cares Fund" He also said, "These ventilators were created by Jyoti CNC Automation Limited Company of Gujarat. Doctors and paramedics of Government Medical College and Hospital (GMCH) in Aurangabad would not have been given proper training to operate ventilators".
At the same time, he had said, "These ventilators were built only after the procedure laid down by the Dean of GMCH and now they are saying that the machines are out of order". On the other hand, Justice RV Ghughe and Justice BU Debadwar rejected the Centre's plea in defence of the ventilators. In fact, the bench said, "It looks like ASG Ajay Talhar is speaking on behalf of the manufacturer. The centre's affidavit defends the manufacturer and claims to have described ventilators in current condition". Meanwhile, the court expressed displeasure and said, "It would have been better if the Central Government had not been in the blame game. Instead of attacking on each other, the Centre should have shown sensitivity to the patients. It is important for any government to take care of the health of its citizens"
