Abstract

When a health crisis strikes, it is impractical to identify a single victim or a category of victims. All persons of the society become sufferers of the health crisis, regardless of the financial, societal or health status, all persons would be forced to undergo the consequences of the crisis in their own way. In the light of the covid 19 induced health crisis, we shall take a look at how the victims of covid 19 were dealt under the existing legal framework for which the reliance is being made on various judicial decisions and various government orders issued during the pandemic time. Thus a few categorizations of victims are being made in this part and the part also focusses on legal framework in existence to address the grievances of the victims.
