It is better you file the case in the NCDRC and then publish it on the Facebook, Twitter and other social media sites. You can claim the total medical expenses which would include the medication as well as the operation amount and the total fees of the Hospital you had paid with Interest above that a minimum of 40-50 lakh can be asked as compensation from the Hospital/ Clinic or the Doctor for the Negligence they have committed.
