The Delhi High Court on Monday declined to entertain a petition seeking direction to the Centre and the city government to take steps to protect and provide welfare measures such as food, accommodation and medicines, to sex workers and the LGBT community during the lockdown. A Bench of Justice Rajiv Sahai Endlaw and Justice Sangita Dhingra Sehgal rejected the plea, by advocate Anurag Chauhan, who had sought financial aid, food, shelter and medicines to sex workers and LGBT community members in Delhi to ensure their survival during the lockdown.
