Can't Make Hospital Dysfunctional For Single Incident Of Medical Negligence: Allahabad HC Stays License Suspension Of Sanjay Gandhi Hospital, Amethi

Live Law  

The Lucknow Bench of the Allahabad High Court recently stayed the suspension of license of Sanjay Gandhi Hospital, Amethi. The bench comprising of Justices Vivek Chaudhary and Manish Kumar observed that because inquiry is pending in a single incidence of medical negligence, the entire hospital cannot be made dysfunctional. “In the given circumstances, keeping a hospital disfunctional during pendency of an inquiry in case of single incidence of medical negligence also goes against the interest of the public at large. Therefore, to balance the interest of public at large and also maintain fairness in inquiry, the impugned orders whereby the suspension is ordered bearing order No.3808 dated 18.09.2023 and order of suspension No.3813 dated 18.09.2023 are stayed.” Counsel for petitioner argued that the hospital had been running for last 40 years in District – Amethi with no untoward incident.
