National Consumer Disputes Redressal Commission New Delhi Original Petition No.214 of 1997

"As laid down by Apex Court in the above case (Jacob Mathew case), we feel that it is high time that hospital authorities realize that the practice of employing non-medical practitioners such as Doctors specialized in Unani system and who do not possess the required skill and competence to give allopathic treatment and to let an emergency patient be treated in their hands is a gross negligence.
