The New Indian Express Mangaluru
|June 24, 2025
A senior nurse from Udupi, 43-year-old Shivakumar Shettigar, lost a job opportunity in Saudi Arabia after a diagnostic error wrongly indicated he had hepatitis C.
The faulty report was issued by National CT Scanner and Diagnostic Centre, Mangaluru.
Shettigar later tested negative at different facilities and approached the Udupi district Consumer Disputes Redressal Commission, alleging negligence. The court ruled in his favour, holding the diagnostic centre accountable for the career loss and mental trauma caused. The court has ordered the centre to pay a compensation of Rs 13.49 lakh to Shettigar.
