Amid the surge in Corona in Telangana State, a petition was filed on public interest in which the High Court Division Bench headed by Chief Justice Hima Kohli and Justice Bollam Vijaysen Reddy heard a batch of public interest litigations on Covid-19. Let us share that the Chief Justice bench expressed its deep concern and dismay over GO dated 16-11-2020, which permits 200 persons to congregate following Covid-19 norms. In this order the District Collectors also concerned and heads of local bodies were authorised to permit congregations. However, HC dismiss that as implementing such a GO will be unsafe for the people of Telangana.
Against this order, Hima Kohli directed the State government to issue a fresh GO in this regard, wherein 50 persons should be restricted for marriages and 20 persons for funerals. She ordered that necessary GO in this regard should be issued by the State government without losing any time within 24 hours.
Here it is to be noted that due to the tremendous increase in the number of positive cases in Telangana, while referring to the Health Bulletins of the State, CJ Hima Kohli said "Adhering to the letter dated 25-4-2021 of the Union Health Ministry to the State governments, the Telangana government has imposed restrictive measures on the advice of the Central government namely, including night curfew which shall remain in force till May 8, 2021 till 5 am.
