Delhi HC Directs Delhi govt. To ensure the safety of person residing in buildings adjacent to those occupied by heath workers.
Delhi High Court has held that while no one has a right to ask for the removal of the resident health workers from their neighborhood because of an unrealistic fear of the Covid-19, the Delhi Government cannot escape their obligation to provide a protected environment to the senior citizens and other residents adjacent to such buildings which are occupied by the health workers. The Single Bench of Justice Asha Menon further noted that the said measures shall include regular fumigation and sanitization while ensuring that all measures of hygiene are adhered to by the occupants.
As coronavirus is highly infected and communicable virus as well, and can spread via contact between two people, through sneezing,coughing, in that case its very necessary to maintain the hygiene in the areas, locality where health workers like doctors, nurses, all hospital related workers and the people who are serving for the coronavirus patients as there is a high risk of transmission of the virus as they are coming in contact with various patients, they need to be sanitized and hygiene properly to stop the spreading of virus to the people living in their nearby houses and buildings.
As far as “HC has directed Delhi govt. to ensure the safety of the persons” is concerned, well in that case the health workers should be provided quarantine place near the hospital and their home to put a hold on the spreading of this highly dangerous virus whose vaccine has not been found till date. As these people, health workers are working for the nation and for the humanity, it's the responsibility of the govt. To look after not only the safety of the health workers but also the people, senior citizens staying in their locality and buildings. Despite being health workers, they are also the citizens of India holding all the same rights as other citizens, no one has right to remove them from their houses.
As far as the health and hygiene concerned of other people and senior citizens staying in their locality, that particular building and locality can be sanitized. Now after the HC directed the Delhi govt.,the govt. officials will look after the matter.
