WBCERC has no authority to adjudicate medical negligence cases: Calcutta HC

In a major decision, the Calcutta High Court bench has clearly iterated that matters concerning the issues of medical negligence cannot be adjudicated by the West Bengal Clinical Establishment Regulatory Commission (WBCERC).

Clarifying its stand in this regard, the HC bench comprising Justice Arijit Banerjee and Justice Apurba Sinha Ray noted, “The negligence in detection of diseases and the allegation of not giving proper medicines to the patient and further improper diagnosis of the diseases are all matters or issues of medical negligence. Therefore, the said issues cannot be adjudicated by the Commission.”
