Jacob Mathew vs State Of Punjab & Anr on 5 August, 2005

"37. We find from a reading of the order of the Commission that it proceeded on the basis that whatever had been alleged in the complaint by the respondent was in fact the inviolable truth even though it remained unsupported by any evidence. As already observed in Jacob Mathew case [(2005) 6 SCC 1 : 2005 SCC (Cri) 1369] the onus to prove medical negligence lies largely on the claimant and that this onus can be discharged by leading cogent evidence. A mere averment in a complaint which is denied by the other side can, by no stretch of imagination, be said to be evidence by which the case of the complainant can be said to be proved. It is the obligation of the complainant to provide the facta probanda as well as the facta probantia."

M.A. Biviji vs Sunita on 19 October, 2023

35. Learned District Forum as well as learned State Commission apparently missed the caution emphasized by Hon‟ble Apex Court in M.A. Biviji v. Sunita & Ors. (supra) whereby it was observed that to hold a medical practitioner liable for negligence, a higher threshold limit must be met. This is to ensure that doctors are focused on deciding the best course of treatment as per their assessment rather than being concerned about possible prosecution or harassment that they may be subjected to, in high-risk medical situations. Therefore, to safeguard medical practitioners and to ensure that they are able to freely discharge their medical duty, a higher proof of burden must be fulfilled by the RP/1038/2020, 1183/2020, 182/2021, 681/2022, 682/2022, 683/2022 Page 36 of 38 complainant. The complainant should be able to prove a breach of duty and the subsequent injury being attributable to the aforesaid breach. On the other hand, doctors need to establish that they had followed reasonable standards of medical practice.

B.V.Nagesh & Anr vs H.V.Sreenivasa Murthy on 24 September, 2010

Learned counsels for OPs further contended that PRP procedure does not come under the purview of Drugs and Cosmetics Act, 1940 and is not regulated under the Schedule F. Reference to Rule 122G(i) framed under the Drugs and Cosmetics Act, 1940 by the learned State Commission is stated to be erroneous as no licence is required for the purpose of undertaking „PRP‟ procedure for hair re-growth. It is further emphasized that complainant failed to substantiate the allegations of misrepresentation by OP-2. It is pointed out that the complainant could RP/1038/2020, 1183/2020, 182/2021, 681/2022, 682/2022, 683/2022 Page 20 of 38 have discontinued the treatment after the first or second session, if he was dissatisfied with the treatment in any manner. However, the complaint was preferred by the complainant after more than two years of completion of the third session merely because the results expected by the complainant were not forthcoming. Reliance is further placed by the learned counsels for OPs on the Jacob Mathew v. State of Punjab & Anr., 2005 (3) CPR 70 (SC); City Union Bank Ltd. v. V.R. Chandramohan, 2023 SCC Online SC 341; Ravneet Singh Bagga v. KLM Royal Dutch Airlines & Anr., (2000) 1 SCC 66; S.K. Jhunjhunwala v. Dhanwati Kaur & Ors., 2018/INSC/915; Central Board of Trustees v.
