Kerala State Consumer Disputes Redressal Commission has ordered a Malappuram-based hospital and its doctor to pay ₹50 lakh in compensation after a 17-year legal battle to a woman, who gave birth to a child with a 90 percent locomotor disability. The mother had stated neither the hospital nor doctors informed her of the child’s abnormalities before birth, despite multiple scans.
