Mumbai: Hospitals must be impeccable, observed the Bombay high court on Wednesday while batting for giving top priority to disposal of bio-medical wastes and hygiene at civic and government hospitals in Mumbai and all over Maharashtra.

“We want special attention to be given to these aspects. That is a priority now,” said a bench of Chief Justice Dipankar Datta and Justice Girish Kulkarni while hearing a PIL for special masks for those with speech and hearing impairment, and the issue of disposal of masks.
