Overview

The Supreme Court of India recently issued a notice to Fortis Hospital in a medical negligence case involving a young child who claimed compensation for an alleged birth-related brain injury in 2017.

Listing the matter for further hearing on December 08, 2025, the Apex Court bench comprising Justices Sanjay Kumar and Alok Aradhe ordered, "Issue notice, returnable on 08.12.2025. Notice shall be served by all modes, including dasti."

The petitioner, an 8-year-old being represented by his mother, filed the plea before the Apex Court after the National Consumer Dispute Redressal Commission (NCDRC) rejected their compensation claim on March 17, this year.
