ABSTRACT
The service which medical professionals render to us is the noblest. Aryans embodied the
rule that, Vidyo narayano harihi.1Medical profession is considered as a most pious profession
all over the world. A doctor is placed only second to Almighty God. He enjoys a position of
an Angel. Patient feels a divine image in him. The medical profession is one of the noblest
professions in the world. However, corporatisation and commercialization of medical
profession has made it like any other business and the medical profession is increasingly
being guided by the profit motive rather than that of service. Such a situation gave rise to
unethical practices and negligence. Therefore, if there is a rashness or negligence on the part
of the doctor while treating a patient he is being made liable under the tortuous liability on
ground of Negligence.
Medical negligence is considered to be part of negligence. Before discussing medical

undesired by the defendant to the plaintiff.
