As per case facts a private doctor died of COVID- after being ordered by local authorities to keep his clinic open during the lockdown His family's insurance claim was rejected
...because he wasn't formally hired for COVID duties a decision the High Court upheld leading to this appeal The question arose whether a legal order compelling a private doctor to work during a pandemic counts as requisitioning their services for insurance purposes Finally the Supreme Court ruled in favor of the family stating that a mandatory order backed by the threat of criminal charges constitutes a legal requisition The Court emphasized that welfare schemes for pandemic heroes must be interpreted broadly to honor their sacrifice rather than being blocked by technicalities
