Immediately file a complaint against the hospital and doctors and also with MCI. Then file case in consumer Forum for negligence and claim compensation and expenses. It may take 2 to 3 year depending upon many factors. For details and or legal help you may contact me if so desire.

Dear sir we have read your query. Sorry to hear about the incident.
For Filing a complaint against the Hospital and treating doctors, first we have to examine the complete inpatient record including case notes of the treatment etc. If you are not having the complete record then you have to first sent the notice to comply with the Medical Ethics Rules Rule 7.1 and after that we can assist you in Filing the Criminal complaint and complaint for compensation and loss.
Thanks
