LUCKNOW, Oct. 16 -- The Lucknow bench of the Allahabad high court on Thursday sought compliance with its September 9 order directing the state government to bear the treatment expenses of a man injured in a fire in Lucknow's Aliganj area that claimed 15 lives. The court had taken note of the condition of Jayant Gupta, 25, who suffered serious injuries and disability in the fire and was undergoing treatment at King George's Medical University (KGMU). It had directed the state government to bear his treatment costs and asked KGMU not to charge him for the treatment. A division bench of Justices Rajan Roy and Manjive Shukla, while hearing a PIL filed by one Shivendu Pandey, on Thursday directed that KGMU be impleaded as an opposite party through its registrar. The court also ordered that the case be listed on Friday (October 16) as the first case of the day. At the previous hearing, counsel appearing for Gupta's family had told the court that his treatment cost around Rs.70,000 a month, while he had received only Rs.50,000 in compensation. The bench had observed that prima facie, the incident could not be attributed solely to the building owner's lapse, as the role of the authorities also needed to be examined for allegedly allowing the building to be constructed and used for commercial purposes illegally.
