Civil Medical Negligence or Civil Liability for Criminal Medical Negligence: A Dilemma
There is no legal definition of negligence and certainly none for Medical Negligence. Supreme Court in the lead case, Jacob Mathew, adopted the definition from Ratan Lal Dheeraj Lal's Indian Penal Code. Applying the same criteria to judge Medical Negligence as ordinary negligence has created a great confusion about Criminal Medical Negligence and Civil Medical Negligence. There is no separate definition of the two. If a case is filed under Tort or CPA it is civil and if under IPC it is criminal. Besides it is subject to the decision of the Judicial Officer. I submit that there is nothing like Criminal or Civil medical negligence. The liability is Civil or Criminal. Liability arises only after the offence is proved.
Healing the Healers: Addressing the Struggles of Medical Students and Resident Doctors
The pursuit of a medical career is often considered a noble and prestigious journey, one that requires immense dedication, intelligence, and resilience. Yet, behind the facade of white coats and healing hands lies a complex and deeply troubling reality faced by medical students and resident doctors. The profession, demanding as it is, comes with profound challenges that place an unbearable strain on the mental, emotional, and physical well-being of those on the frontlines. The issues they encounter are not simply occasional hurdles but systemic problems that demand urgent attention and reform.
No One Rigged NEET 2024
Despite the avalanche of facts and evidence, the claim that the NEET exam paper was leaked on a large scale remains unsubstantiated. The word "integrity" should embody an untouchable sanctity, yet in the context of NEET 2024, its essence appears to have been diluted. In the past, any breach in the paper's chain of custody was enough to declare a compromise in exam integrity. Now, a localized leak does not seem to tarnish the sanctity of the examination. In this digital era, the distinction between local and global leaks appears almost ludicrous.
Why ReNEET should be done?
The entire world is watching what has happened in the present NEET row and paper leaks and what action our country is taking If nothing concrete is done there will be loss of credibility of our children who apply in foreign universities in times to come .
NEET Tragedy - Dilemma between Injustice and Inconvenience
The affidavit submitted by the government to the Supreme Court acknowledges that the paper was leaked in limited areas, while until a few days ago, the government was completely denying this. The Union Education Minister had explicitly denied any paper leak. The NTA also did not acknowledge any paper leak in its press releases, even though evidence started emerging on the day of the exam itself, on May 5.
Munchausen Syndrome by Proxy: Factitious Disorder Imposed by Another
Munchausen syndrome by proxy, now known as Factitious Disorder Imposed by Another (FDIA), is a recognized mental health condition. Individuals with this disorder, often dominant and assertive, present themselves as saviors of a vulnerable, supposedly ill person. They impose their perception of the illness on the patient, typically a relative or close associate, and publicly claim that even top medical professionals cannot diagnose or treat the condition properly. These individuals often exaggerate the patients’ symptoms and acquire extensive medical knowledge to support their claims.
NEET UG 2024 : CONTROVERSY CONTINUES UNABATED
The Supreme Court has observed what many others believe in i.e. Governments may come and go but the thoughts and legacy of compassion and justice must live on. Hence, despite persistent efforts of the striking students and a large number of petitions challenging the NTA and its functionaries in different courts of the country, the Apex Court has taken , what I feel is a right decision of issuing notices to the Centre and NTA on NEET UG 2024 and seeking their reply by the 08 th. July 2024 when the courts re-open besides staying all similar proceedings before different High Courts.
AN APIARY CALLED NATIONAL TESTING AGENCY
Till sometime back, it was thought that extending the dates for submission of the application forms was only the beginning of the chapter. Logically they were not wrong either because someone in the NTA and/or the HRD Ministry took personal interest in the matter.
THE GUARANTEE BUBBLE
Populism may get a party or its leaders some votes or even power, but does not offer credibility in the long run. Promising guarantees, but not being honest towards fulfilling them breed dissatisfaction among the people who look up to the government and its leaders for justice and timely action.
NEET UG 2024 AND FATHER'S DAY.
The 6th April 1993 will always be remembered as one of the most magical moments of my life, when my son was born and I held him for the first time after his birth. I still remember his first cry on meeting the real world. Presently, he is in Pune working with a startup and I feel elated as a father that he has successfully managed to scale all adversaries till now and complete all responsibilities entrusted on him. Spending quality time with him ( whenever he comes to Jabalpur ) still remains one of my favourite pastimes.
