SC on Doctor Vacancies in Encephalitis-Hit Bihar: ‘There's Shortage of Judges, Water, Sunlight Too' - (29 Jul 2019)

CIVIL

Supreme Court observed that "There are vacancies for judges, doctors, ministers, Rajya Sabha members, even water and sunlight everywhere but we can't fill them up all," as it drew curtains on a clutch of PILs over the death of several children in Bihar due to encephalitis. The Court made these observations as one of the lawyers pointed out that there is a shortage of 57 per cent of doctors in Bihar.
