    So SC now believes the govt version that the media is responsible for the exodus of migrants? Stop shooting the messenger folks and ensure better ground planning instead.

    Read here all the highlights of the Supreme Court order, released this evening, accepting all the government claims about migrants and directing the media to follow the official version of developments.

    From March 13 to 21, Delhi govt issued a series of orders restricting social/ religious gatherings. Markaz was in violation of each and every one of them. They must be held accountable. My other Qs: why did the local police not act on March 13 itself and disperse the gathering?

    Not at all. I have praised efforts of health ministry under leadership.We can endlessly debate whether more could have been done earlier: battling corona not easy. Fact is,when raised issue in Feb, he was mocked by govt supporters for being alarmist.

    Mr . Perhaps you pay attention only when Mr Gandhi tweeted. But here’s what Modi Govt did Jan 17: Screening at 7 airports Jan 25: 20,000 people, 115 flights screened Jan 29: N95 mask export banned Feb 3: e-Visa suspended for Chinese

    I know this will be seen as troll bait but was probably the first national politician to warn of an impending corona crisis on Feb 12. Then he was typically mocked at. Had we acted swiftly then on visas and travel restrictions, things might have been better?Agree?
