Order: The directions to Union of India to set up a policy for urgent basis for door to door vaccination of senior citizens and mentally challenged citizens at the earliest. The Union of India did not rise to the occasion.

#BombayHighCourt #COVIDVaccination
Order: However the State has shown the light at the end of the tunnel. The AG has placed before us a policy for elderly, bed-ridden patients, terminally ill patients who have been identified eligible for the vaccination drive.

#BombayHighCourt #COVIDVaccination
Order: The decision has been taken to start vaccinating such patients from BMC jurisdiction from August 1, 2021 as there are more bed-ridden patients in Mumbai.

#BombayHighCourt #COVIDVaccination
Order: A status report with regard to drive will be placed before us on the next date. We hope and trust that the State and BMC will leave no stone unturned for ineligible and immobile patients to avail the vaccination scheme.
