    Delhi allowed to reserve 80% ICU beds for COVID-19 patients
  • The Delhi High Court on Thursday allowed the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) government to reserve 80% of Intensive Care Unit (ICU) beds for COVID-19 patients in 33 private hospitals.

    The decision comes after the Delhi government had challenged a single-judge's interim order staying the government's decision to reserve the ICU beds.

    Worryingly, COVID-19 cases have been rising again in the national capital.

    The matter has been listed for further hearing on November 26.

    Delhi is seeking to reserve 80% ICU beds for COVID-19 patients in 33 private hospitals for at least 15 days.
