HC asks Delhi govt to comply with order to regulate online path labs

The Delhi High Court Friday said it expects that the AAP government will put things in order and comply with a judicial order asking authorities to take action and regulate online pathological labs, otherwise contempt action would be initiated.

The high court, which was hearing a plea alleging non-compliance of its order in this regard, also sought to know from the AAP government whether its pathological laboratories and hospitals are NABL accredited.

The plea alleged non-compliance of the high court’s August 6, 2020 order to take action against illegal online health service aggregators operating in Delhi and to regulate online pathological labs.
