The Supreme Court on Monday refused to stay the proceedings against BJP MP Gautam Gambhir's foundation in a case relating to alleged hoarding and distribution of Covid-19 medicines.

A bench comprising Justices DY Chandrachud and MR Shah said at a time when people were running helter skelter for medicines and drugs, one foundation buying large amounts of medicine "was not done".

“We do not want to say anything but we also have our ears to the ground,” the bench observed, asking the petitioner to approach the Delhi High Court and seek appropriate remedy.
