The NHRC also directed authorities to specify in their reports action taken against erring hospitals and nursing homes that denied admission to dengue patients, besides the short-term and long-term measures proposed for prevention and treatment of dengue in Delhi.
"Details have been sought on ex-gratia payment scheme formulated by the government for deaths due to negligence by hospitals," an NHRC statement said.
The NHRC took a suo motu cognisance of media reports that two children died of dengue after some private hospitals in the city turned them away.
