Court Orders Investigation into Fortis Hospital Case
A court in Delhi is looking into a case about a baby who might have been hurt at Fortis Hospital.
The baby's mother said that the doctors and the hospital did something wrong, and now the court wants the police to investigate.
The doctors' qualifications are being questioned, and it's not clear if they followed all the rules.
The court is concerned because the hospital and doctors may have hidden the truth by altering records.
The police will now look into what happened to the baby, including what caused the injury and if proper tests were done.
The hospital says it will cooperate and take advice on its next steps.
The mother claims the baby suffered brain damage, including cerebral palsy and epilepsy.
A Delhi court ordered an investigation into alleged medical negligence at Fortis Hospital.
The case involves accusations of medical negligence and record tampering by two doctors.
The court rejected the police's closure report and ordered a more detailed investigation.
