Rs 20 lakh compensation relief to Delhi Hospital accused of negligence in performing tubectomy
Reiterating the Apex Court's ruling that the methods of sterilization so far known to the medical science are not 100% safe and secure, the District Consumer Disputes Redressal Commission (DCDRC), North-East Delhi dismissed a complaint seeking compensation for a failed tubectomy surgery.
The consumer court held that the complainant was not entitled to compensation for unwanted pregnancy since there was no negligence on the part of the hospital in performing the surgery and the complainant herself turned down the advice for Medical Termination of Pregnancy.
