Delhi High Court Questions BJP Leader For Procuring, Distributing Covid Drugs

The bench was informed that the leader has tweeted that those who need 'Remdesivir' and 'Fabiflu' can collect it from his offices here after showing Aadhaar card of the patient and prescription.

The Delhi High Court on Tuesday questioned a BJP leader for procuring huge quantities of medicines required for treating COVID-19 patients and distributing it to people in need from his offices. "How is anybody procuring these drugs in large quantities? These medicines are supposed to be given with prescription only. Is he holding a licence," a bench of Justices Vipin Sanghi and Rekha Palli said. The bench was informed that the leader has tweeted that those who need 'Remdesivir' and 'Fabiflu' can collect it from his offices here after showing Aadhaar card of the patient and prescription. Petitioner advocate Rakesh Malhotra, without naming the leader, said he had tweeted that he had these medicines but how he was procuring it when people were unable to get even one dose.
