The move comes amid LNJP Hospital facing heat from several quarters over a video aired on a private channel showing alleged mismanagement at the facility.
The Delhi government on Friday said it accepted the observations of the Supreme Court with "absolute sincerity" and if any gap is brought to its notice, the adminstration would work on it "immediately".

The Supreme Court on Friday had termed as "horrific" the state of affairs in Delhi hospitals with bodies being stacked next to COVID-19 patients, and sought responses from the Centre and different states on its plea taking suo motu cognisance on the treatment being meted out to patients and the handling of the bodies.
