Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court examined the findings of medical negligence and deficiency in service against Deep Nursing Home and Dr. Kanwarjit Kochhar, in relation to the death of Charanpreet Kaur and her newborn. The lower tribunal had held the nursing home liable for negligence but found no fault regarding the newborn's death, directing compensation accordingly.
