The Delhi High Court on May 1 questioned the Centre as to why four cryogenic tankers, which were meant for Delhi to treat COVID-19 patients and held up by the Rajasthan government, have not been released yet despite the court's earlier orders.
A Bench of Justices Vipin Sanghi and Rekha Palli said let necessary steps be taken to fulfil the assurance given by Solicitor General Tushar Mehta on April 26 that these tankers will be released.
It asked the Centre to place compliance of its order on May 3.
The Bench, which is conducting a special hearing on a holiday, started the proceedings at 11.30 a.m. and is still continuing.
