Jaipur: The Rajasthan High Court Monday issued notice to the state govt over its failure to frame rules under the Rajasthan Right to Health (RTH) Act, 2022, even after two-and-a-half years, and directed it to file a reply within eight weeks.A division bench of Acting Chief Justice Sanjeev Prakash Sharma and Justice Sangeeta Sharma passed the order while hearing a public interest litigation (PIL) filed by Dr Narendra Kumar Gupta of Chittorgarh. The PIL seeks directions to the govt to frame and notify rules under Section 17 of the Act and place them before the state legislature. Counsel for the petitioner, Sudhindra Kumawat, argued that the state has not framed the mandatory rules and regulations despite the Act receiving the governor’s assent over two-and-a-half years ago, leaving the law largely inoperative.
