Outreach (the extent or length of reaching out)<\/strong> and overreach (reach too far)<\/strong>: On judicial intervention during COVID-19 crisis<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

As long as the court does not usurp (take (a position of power or importance) by force)<\/strong> executive\u2019s role, action to mitigate a crisis is welcome<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Judicial intervention in response to the Union government\u2019s flailing (beset by difficulties)<\/strong> response to the health crisis has reached its apotheosis (the highest point in the development of something)<\/strong> with the Supreme Court order forming a 12-member national task force for the effective and transparent allocation of medical oxygen to the States and Union Territories \u201con a scientific, rational and equitable basis\u201d. Making recommendations on augmenting the supply based on present and projected demands and facilitating audits by sub-groups within each State and UT is also part of its remit (the task or area of activity officially assigned to an organization)<\/strong>. The Court has also mandated it to review and suggest measures for ensuring the availability of essential drugs and remedial measures to meet future emergencies during the pandemic. In other words, the national task force has become a judicially empowered group that may significantly guide the handling of the health crisis set off by the second pandemic wave. Faced with proceedings in High Courts relating to the allocation and availability of oxygen, the Centre submitted that an expert committee may be constituted, consisting of persons drawn from public and private health-care institutions, to facilitate a fresh assessment of the basis for the allocation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"SBI<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

When the Karnataka High Court ordered last week that the Centre should supply 1,200 tonnes of medical oxygen daily to the State, the Centre rushed with a challenge to the apex court. Solicitor General Tushar Mehta argued that if every High Court started entertaining petitions on equitable allocation of oxygen, pandemic management would become unworkable. The Supreme Court declined to stay the order, describing it as a careful and calibrated (carefully assessed, set, or adjusted)<\/strong> one. Several High Courts and the Supreme Court are examining different aspects of the pandemic response, including availability of beds and oxygen. The trend did raise concerns about the judiciary encroaching on the executive domain. There is some merit in the argument that allocation of resources based on a formula related to the present and projected requirements of each State is indeed an executive function. However, as the daily infection numbers and death toll have acquired frightening levels, the constitutional courts felt obliged to take it upon themselves to protect the right to life and good health of the population. It cannot be forgotten that the judiciary drew much flak (strong criticism)<\/strong> last year for its initial failure to mitigate the crisis set off by the lack of succour (assistance and support in times of hardship and distress)<\/strong> to millions of migrant workers. Justice D.Y. Chandrachud, who heads the Bench hearing the suo motu (on its own motion; the term is usually applied to actions by a judge taken without a prior motion or request from the parties) <\/strong>proceedings, has clarified that the Court was not usurping the executive\u2019s role, but only wanted to facilitate a dialogue among stakeholders. As long as this position is clear, the present intervention need not be seen as a dangerous overreach.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
