Probable Questions (Plaintiff)

1. Whether Ms. Pinky can be termed as a 'Consumer' under the Consumer Protection Act?
2. Its is well known fact that a person has to file a suit within 30 days of the action as under Code of
Civil Procedure & Limitation Act? In the facts, the dates have not been mentioned as to how much time
had lapsed between the moment she came to know about the blunder caused due to the Hospital
authorities AND the date of filing of suit. Whether the suit is barred by Limitation?
3. Ms. Pinky had given her consent for undergoing this ultra modern operation. It is a well known fact
that under the Agreement between the Hospital and the Patient which is signed prior to the operation,
the hospital authorities always insert a term taking off their hands over any mis-happening which may
incur between the parties. Can it be a valid defence for the Hospital authorities to take their hands off
the issue stating that the plaintiff had signed the agreement with prior knowledge that the hospital wont
be liable for any mis-happening during the operation?
Respondent:
1. Whether the Hi-Tech Hospital is a 'Service Provider' as per the Consumer Protection Act?
2. Whether the suit is barred by limitation of time?
3. If the hospital authorities will pay for the total medications and treatment of Ms. Pinky, will the
plaintiff take back the complain and the suit she has filed before the district court?
