The court observed that the claims of the doctor were not justified and had no valid ground. The court further noted that the primary motive behind filing such a case might be to grab some public attention. It considered the PIL to be a sheer waste of the court's precious time and decided to impose fine to make sure that no one should approach the apex court with such contention.

Subsequently, the court dismissed the petition and imposed a fine of Rs 10000. The court held;

"Such wastage of judicial time is completely inappropriate."

"We are of the view that such kind of petitions must be stopped as anybody and everybody thinks they have some cure for the situation," the court added.

The petitioner was instructed to deposit the fined amount in the Supreme Court Advocates-on-Record Welfare Fund within the coming four weeks, reports News18.
