Just In: An application has been filed in the #SupremeCourt against #DelhiGovernment seeking initiation of contempt proceedings against them owing to the #Ban on online sale of the #firecrackers allegedly imposed by them.
@dr_a_p_singhLaw
Adv AP Singh while speeking with @LawBeatInd said, not only online sale, general sale & use of #firecracker has also been banned.

Application stated, CM @ArvindKejriwal, without passing any official resolution announced a ban on the sale and distribution of firecrackers in Delhi
It submits that the prohibition imposed on the purchase and sale of #firecrackers and not licensing firecracker shops in Delhi is not only an attack on our "Religious Tradition of bursting crackers on #Deepawali but also in violation of the Explosives Rules 2008."

Denial of healthcare services to people from across the country puts the Delhi govt. not just in violation of international #humanrights standards that guarantee #RightToHealthcare but also Article 21 of the #Constitution which guarantees #RightToLife.

On Sunday, @CMODelhi @ArvindKejriwal announced that all govt. and private hospitals in the city would only treat residents of #Delhi except those seeking treatment relating to oncology, transplantation & neuro-surgery & victims of road accidents and acid attacks within Delhi NCR.
Even though serious public health threats such as the #COVID__19 pandemic may justify restrictions on some rights, it must strictly have a legal basis, must not be discriminatory in application, respectful of human dignity & proportionate to achieve the objective.
