HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE L.NARASIMHA REDDY WRIT PETITION No.3344 of 2007 Dated:22.02.2007 Between: Addala Vara Laxmi. …Petitioner. and The Government of A.P., represented by its Secretary, Medical & Health, Secretariat, Hyderabad and others. …Respondents HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE L.NARASIMHA REDDY WRIT PETITION No.3344 of 2007 ORDER: The petitioner states that she has undergone tubectomy operation on 07.07.2006 at the Mandal Primary Health Centre, Akiveedu. The 3rd respondent is said to have conducted operation. It is alleged that the operation was defective and not being able to tolerate the suffering, she had to undergo operation at a private hospital at Bheemavaram. This Writ Petition is filed with a prayer to award a sum of Rs.2,00,000/-, against the respondents, as compensation, on the ground that the operation was defective and that the petitioner had incurred expenditure, apart from undergoing pain and suffering. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned Government Pleader for Medical and Health. The petitioner claims compensation against the respondents, on the ground that the services rendered to her were defective and that the same has resulted in financial burden and physical suffering. These aspects, by their very nature, need proper verification, through the process of recording of evidence. It is only in a properly constituted suit, such an exercise can be undertaken. If the petitioner is still undergoing any suffering, she can certainly secure necessary relief at any Government hospital. For the foregoing reasons, the Writ Petition is disposed of, leaving it open to the petitioner to work out her remedies in a civil Court. In case, the petitioner needs any further treatment, she shall approach the District Hospital, Eluru, West Godavari District, and the concerned superintendent shall extend the proper medical facilities to her. There shall be no order as to costs. ____________________ Dt.22.02.2007 L.NARASIMHA REDDY, J Note:Furnish C.C. in three days. (B/o) GJ
