As India continues to struggle with a devastating second wave of covid-19, four lawyers from two prominent law firms have joined hands to help.
Vaibhav Kakkar and Akshay Jain from L&L Partners, and Karan Chandhiok and Pooja Mahajan from Chandhiok & Mahajan are working alongside Aster Volunteers, the corporate social responsibility arm of Aster DM Healthcare, and Alshifa Hospital, to convert a school in Delhi into a field hospital.
“The field hospital is likely to be operational this weekend,” Chandhiok told India Business Law Journal. “It will have oxygen cylinders, oxygen concentrators and other medical equipment. It will be a 50-bed covid care centre in the Scholar School in southeast Delhi’s Jamia Nagar.
