Madras High Court says the Election Commission of India is responsible for the spread of COVID-19 in India..

Everyday more than 3.5 lakh new COVID cases are being reported in India. In every city and town, there is no bed in  hospitals for admitting the COVID patients. Even the patients who are admitted are dying due to lack of oxygen. Under these circumstances, the Madras High Court has told yesterday that, the Election Commission of India is fully responsible for the present situation in India. Massive election rallies were conducted in many states recently. No COVID protocol was followed by the political parties. The court charged that, the Election Commission has failed to implement the court directive that, COVID protocol should be maintained by the political parties during the election rallies. The Bench consisting of Chief Justice Sanjib Banerjee and Justice Senthilkumar Ramamoorthy asked whether the Election Commission was on another planet when election rallies were held. In a harsh remark, the Court said that, the Election Commission should be put up on murder charges probably.
