The apex court had insisted that an RT-PCR test report and death certificate showing that the death has occurred within 30 days are the only requirements to receive compensation.

New Delhi: The Supreme Court has lashed out at the Gujarat government for constituting a “scrutiny” committee for the disbursal of ex-gratia compensation for COVID-19 deaths, overreaching the court’s direction, therefore making the process “cumbersome”.

According to LiveLaw, the state government had issued a notification for the formation of a scrutiny committee for issuing death certificates to get compensation. The apex court had insisted that an RT-PCR test report and death certificate showing that the death has occurred within 30 days are the only requirements to receive compensation.

The Supreme Court had on October 4 issued a number of guidelines to be followed on the disbursal of ex-gratia compensation of Rs 50,000 to the families of COVID-19 victims. It was recommended by the National Disaster Management Authority (NDMA).

The bench comprising Justices M.R. Shah and B.V. Nagarathna observed on November 18 that the constitution of the scrutiny committee appeared to be “an attempt to overreach the directions” passed in the judgment in the case.
