The Delhi High Court has directed DUSIB to prepare yearly contingency plans to protect patients and their attendants from extreme heat and cold while staying outside government hospitals. The order came after the court took note of the “pitiable condition” of people camping outside AIIMS for treatment.
The Supreme Court On December 3, requested the Delhi Urban Shelter Improvement Board (DUSIB) to provide details about shelter accommodations for the homeless amid the forthcoming winter. The court highlighted concerns about the adequacy of facilities, particularly following the demolition of nine shelters. DUSIB must submit an affidavit by December 17 addressing these issues.
