NEW DELHI: The Delhi high court has sought responses of the Centre and the AAP government on a plea seeking directions to them to take steps to address issues related to starvation deaths, especially of children, in the national capital and also in other parts of the country.

A bench of Chief Justice Rajendra Menon and Justice VK Rao issued notice to the Ministry of Home Affairs and the Delhi government seeking their stands on the issue raised in the petition which claims malnutrition and deaths due to starvation were more prevalent among slum-dwellers as many of them do not have ration cards to access subsidised food grains.

The court also directed that the Delhi government's departments of Health and Family Welfare, the Social Welfare as well as the Women and Child Development be also made parties to the case.

The court listed the matter for further hearing on February 15, 2019.

The order came on the PIL filed by lawyer Maneesh Pathak who has claimed that often the poor families living in slums do not have ration cards due to lack of address proof and has contended that it should not be a ground for denial of subsidised food to them.
