"State governments have inherent powers to take action against people who bypass the system laid down to stop infectious diseases," said Agarwal.Meanwhile, Indian Council of Medical Research Chief Epidemiologist RR Gangakhedkar said that people should refrain from taking the names of patients and instead respect the privacy of individuals. "Today, there is one such case; tomorrow, there may be more (high-profile cases).
