The Supreme Court on Wednesday said it will examine the limit of constitutional courts when venturing into matters that fall under the purview of the executive in connection with the Covid-19 management. A bench comprising justices Vineet Saran and Dinesh Maheshwari said: "We may have 110 suggestions, but will it become an order. We have to remember; we are a constitutional court".

The bench added, "How far can a constitutional court go, when public health emergencies like Covid-19 occurs?" The top court made this observation disagreeing with the Allahabad High Court directions to the Uttar Pradesh government on providing a specific number of ambulances and other amenities, connected with Covid-19 management, across the state. Justice Saran queried, whether it would at all be needed for the high court to tread on this arena?
