    Case Summary The Bombay High Court directed Maharashtra State Government to immediately pay Rs. 50 lakhs compensation to the petitioner for his wife's death while working as an Assistant Nurse in a COVID-19 ward, holding that disputes over whether Central or State Government bears liability cannot delay the beneficiary's entitlement under the Pradhan Mantri Garib Kalyan Package scheme. The court reserved the question of inter-governmental reimbursement for later determination and set a 60-day deadline for payment.
