A few aggrieved persons file complaints involving medical negligence before the Consumer Forums and even before the state Medical Councils.
The Medical Councils are slower than snails……..and things hardly move there.
In a novel approach, the National Human Rights Commission and the non profit Jan Swasthya Abhiyan (JSA) have started entertaining such complaints and holding public hearings.
The first public hearings in Mumbai will take place in the Tata Institute of Social Sciences, Deonar on 18 and 19 November 2015.
Aggrieved persons can send their complaint to the following:
