A consumer court has ordered a private hospital and a doctor to pay Rs15 million in compensation to a woman whose full-term newborn boy suffered fetal distress due to “gross negligence” and “breach of duty of care”.

Rija Hasan filed a complaint with the East district consumer court seeking damages and compensation from a private hospital and gynaecologist Dr Aliya Begum Aziz for mental trauma she went through due to their alleged defective services and negligence.
