The Madhya Pradesh High Court has granted a one-month extension to a commission led by former judge Justice Sushil Kumar Gupta to investigate the drinking water contamination deaths in Bhagirathpura, Indore, allowing more time to submit a detailed report.
The Madhya Pradesh government told the Indore bench that seven people, including a five-month-old infant, died amid vomiting and diarrhoea in Bhagirathpura, without naming the disease. A 158 page report was placed before Justices Vijay Kumar Shukla and Alok Awasthi.
