THE HON’BLE DR JUSTICE G.YETHIRAJULU Writ Petition No.1980 of 2004 27.12.2007 Between K.Sankar …Petitioner And The Superintendent, E.S.I.Hospital, Gunadala, Vijayawada and others. …Respondents THE HON’BLE DR JUSTICE G.YETHIRAJULU Writ Petition No.1980 of 2004 ORDER: This is a writ petition filed by the petitioner seeking to direct the respondents not to discontinue treatment to him for sanction of funds as per the Entitlement Certificate, dated 22.12.2003, as denial of treatment abruptly is violative of Article 21 of the Constitution of India and to direct the respondents to continue medical treatment of dialysis. After filing of the writ petition, an interim direction was given by this Court through the order, dated 13.02.2004, which reads as follows: “Pending further orders, it is directed that the treatment of dialysis to the petitioner shall be continued till a decision is taken on the claim of the petitioner for extension of benefit, in any E.S.I. Hospital or NIMS, as the case may be.” The learned counsel for the petitioner submitted that since the petitioner is extended the benefit of treatment all through, it would be appropriate if the interim order is made absolute by disposing of the writ petition and there is no need to pass any separate order in the matter. The learned counsel for the respondents submitted that the interim order directing the respondents to continue treatment to the petitioner may be ordered by deleting the portion ‘till a decision is taken’. In the light of the circumstances explained by both the parties, the writ petition is disposed of directing that the respondents shall continue to extend the benefit of treatment to the petitioner, including dialysis, till the necessity ceases. No costs. _______________ 27.12.2007 VGB
