TRS president and CM K Chandrasekhar Rao on Tuesday expressed anguish over the adverse comments made by the state high court despite his government’s all out efforts to contain the Covid-19 pandemic in the state.
Several who took part in the review meeting conducted by KCR said they felt bad over the comments made by the high court despite the fact that the government and medical staff are working with commitment with regard to taking measures to contain the virus, conducting the tests and the treatment.
“On the Corona issue, every other person is going to the High Court. So far, the high court has admitted 87 Public Interest Litigations. Due to the daily hearings, the officials are facing problems and hardship. Senior doctors and other officials, who are working day and night giving treatment to the needy, are forced to spend more amount of their time to run to the court,” the officials told the chief minister.
“In this hour of crisis, these senior officials had to leave their primary duty and are spending time to prepare for the court hearing and to attend the hearings. With this, they are not been able to render cent percent justice to their duties,” they regretted.
KCR said when compared to other States in the country, the situation in Telangana state is better. There is less percentage of deaths. But yet, the state government and the medical officers are working to the best of their abilities. The government is ready to provide medical treatment to any number of patients whatever may be their number, he said.
“It is painful that though so much had been done, but yet the High Court made some comments. In the past too, someone filed a petition asking that tests should be conducted on the dead. The High Court gave orders in their favour,” he pointed out.
The chief minister said based on the comments made by the high court, some media organisations were also reporting in such way to convey that the state government was not doing anything on the matter.
“This is shattering the morale of the medical staff who are rendering the services putting their own lives at stake,” he said.
