In the backdrop of shortage of supply of Covid-19 medicines, the Delhi High Court on Monday said politicians have no business to hoard stocks of Covid-19 medicines and they should surrender these drugs.

A bench comprising Justices Vipin Sanghi and Jasmeet Sanghi expressed dissatisfaction on the Delhi Police status report in connection with the allegations of politicians involved in hoarding and distributing Covid-19 medicines, including Remdesivir, in the capital. The bench emphasized that political leaders have no business to hoard these medicines, especially at an hour when there is a shortage of supply and citizens are running around for these drugs.
