Noting that the doctors at the Palampur Civil Hospital conducted the banned two-finger test on a minor rape victim, the Himachal Pradesh High Court recently slammed the doctors and directed the State to pay Rs 5 lakh compensation to the child and later recover the amount from the erring doctors. Apart from this, the court has also asked the State to hold an inquiry against all the concerned doctors.
