New Delhi: SC to hear PIL on Chikunguniya menace in the state
Advertisement
New Delhi: The Supreme Court has decided to hear a public interest litigation (PIL) asking the Delhi government to take adequate measures to control the spread of vector-borne diseases- chikungunya, dengue and malaria- in the city.
The apex court division bench, headed by Justice Anil R. Dave, will hear the plea on September 26.
The PIL, filed by a Delhi-based doctor, Anil Mittal, raises the issue of the national capital being used a dumping ground and implicates the South Delhi Municipal Corporation and other wards as parties in the case.
