The High Court order asked Centre to increase daily liquid medical oxygen allocation for Karnataka.
New Delhi:
The Supreme Court today rejected the Centre’s petition against a High Court order asking it to send 1,200 MT of oxygen to Karnataka.
“The Karnataka High Court order is a careful, calibrated exercise and we see no reason to entertain the Centre’s appeal,” the Supreme Court said.
The Centre had yesterday approached the Supreme Court against the High Court order asking it to increase daily liquid medical oxygen allocation for Karnataka from 965 MT to 1200 MT for treating COVID-19 patients.
“The Centre cannot be averse to reasonable demands of states. We are concerned with the High Court order and if every High Court directs then it will be unworkable,” the Centre argued.
“We have a limited quantity and we can sit together,” it said.
