520 _aThe complete and utter failure of the governance of the health of the people being witnessed in India amid the Covid-19 pandemic has meant that the actions of the high courts and the Supreme Court have come as a modicum of succour to citizens struggling to find beds, medicines, oxygen and quality healthcare. Proceedings in the court are supposed to be conducted in a calm and detached atmosphere, but the charged nature of the hearings in the high courts and the Supreme Court when it comes to the Covid-19 pandemic is clear for all to see, even in the live tweets. Judges have expressed their anguish, rage and frustration at the sheer incompetence and callousness with which governmental authorities have responded to the Covid-19 pandemic. – Reproduced
