Know why SC stayed Allahabad HC directions | Seedhe Field Se (May 21, 2021)

The Supreme Court on Friday stayed the directions issued by the Allahabad High Court in connection with Covid-19 management in Uttar Pradesh, stressing that the high courts should not pass orders "that are impossible to implement".

While passing its directions, the Allahabad High Court had observed the entire medical system of the state, especially in smaller cities and villages, can only be taken to be like the famous Hindi phrase "Ram bharose" (at the mercy of god).

The top court also asked the High Courts to not pass orders having national and international ramifications, and leave these matters for the top court to examine.
