The Commission has sent notices to Katju Hospital superintendent Dr Abha Shukla, Dr Nilam Dhawan, Dr Usha Grover, staff nurse Hemlata Thakur and contractual staff nurse Deepmala over the death of procreative Suman on December 11 under Section 16 of Human Rights Protection Act 1993.
The Commission has said in the notice that why not recommendation to pay compensation and departmental action should be made against all the doctors and paramedical staff concerned in the case. The Commission has asked the doctors and paramedical staff concerned to appear before it on February 28 and submit a written reply.
The Commission action came after the report of Chief Medical and Health Officer (CMHO) and Health Officers enquiry team found that the negligent attitude of Katju Hospital doctors is responsible for the death of procreative Suman and it is only they who are responsible for the incidence.
The Commission is of the view that the doctors snatched the human and living rights of procreative Suman by not providing her appropriate and timely treatment and for that why not recommendations to pay a compensation of `5 lakh to the family of deceased Suman under section 18 a (1) of Human Rights Protection Act 1993 should be made.
