The Madurai bench of Madras high court has directed the Kanyakumari district collector to pay a monthly compensation of ₹5,000 to teenaged girl, who had written a letter to the court seeking compensation to treat her mother, who is in coma, or allow her to get euthanized.

A division bench of justice M M Sundresh and justice N Satish Kumar issued the directions to the Kanyakumari district administration after the report submitted by the medical team mentioned that there is less chance of recovery of the woman. The court had earlier initiated suo motu proceedings based on a petition from the 18-year-old, R S Aadharsha. According to the petition, her mother went into coma due to medical negligence by doctors at the district co-operative hospital, Kulasekaram.
