CHENNAI: With the State government granting approval to set up a medical expert team, Arumugasamy Commission inquiring into the death of the late Chief Minister J Jayalalithaa is to set up a four-member doctors' team to scrutinise the documents submitted by Apollo Hospitals.
According to official sources, the commission headed by retired Madras High Court Judge Justice Arumugasamy has sought the State government's approval to form a medical expert team to examine the treatments and medical documents related to Jayalalithaa's death.
"The commission will now pick four medical experts of its own choice and they will be assigned the job of simplifying the details of medical treatments provided to the late Chief Minister. The doctors will also be asked to assist the commission to verify the statements of doctors who treated Jayalalithaa with the medical records," said official sources.
On September 22, 2016, Jayalalithaa was admitted in Apollo Hospitals after she suffered from fever and dehydration. She underwent treatment in the hospital for more than two months and died on December 5.
After the State government set up a probe panel to investigate the circumstances leading to Jayalalithaa's hospitalisation and death a few months ago, Apollo Hospitals submitted copies of her treatment and health records, including medical tests conducted on her.
The examination of a huge volume of medical records is expected to be crucial in the inquiry commission as it will unravel the circumstances that led to Jayalalithaa's death. If required, the commission may also summon the doctors to get more specific information on the health condition, added sources.

CHENNAI : Doctors in the Sri Ramachandra Medical Centre successfully treated a 56-year-old man with Parkinson’s disease with Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS), a surgical therapy, recently. According to a release, Natarajan was diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease many years ago. As his condition worsened, his family approached SRMC.
Natarajan was found fit for DBS therapy as brain deep stimulation may not be suitable for all patients.
The therapy involves placing two electrodes into the patient’s brain and connecting them with a battery on the chest wall. The therapy helps the brain cells communicate with each other using electrical signals.

Plea in HC against PG courses of MGR medical varsity
The Madras High Court has sought the response of the Centre, the Medical Council of India (MCI) and Tamil Nadu Dr. MGR Medical University to a writ petition filed by the Doctors Welfare Association of Tamil Nadu to declare certain postgraduate diploma and fellowship courses run by the university as illegal.
Justice S. Vaidyanathan ordered notices returnable by the first week of June since the general secretary of the association, K. Srinivasan, 63, in his affidavit, claimed that the courses were being run in contravention of the Indian Medical Council Act of 1956 and the Indian Medical Degrees Act of 1916.
The petitioner wanted the court to prevent the university from offering PG diploma in palliative medicine, MD family medicine course through distance education, one-year fellowship in medical sciences such as HIV medicine, occupational health, clinical immunology, palliative medicine and sexual medicine.
The petitioner association, through its counsel Ebenezer, had claimed that the university had been offering and proposing to offer various courses of study and training in medicine without obtaining prior permission from the Union Ministry of Health and Family Welfare and without the MCI recognition for those courses.
It stated that an advertisement issued by the university on February 11 stated that some courses were not approved by the MCI.

IAS topper alleges harassment by bank to repay education loan

M.Sivaguru Prabakaran.
Says wasn’t allowed to withdraw money to attend interview
M. Sivaguru Prabakaran, IAS topper from Tamil Nadu, was allegedly harassed by a leading public sector bank, demanding that he repay the education loan even before he could get a job. The bank even held the Rs. 10,000 in his account under lien, preventing him from withdrawing the money to attend the Civil Services interview in New Delhi.
It was his friends who came to his rescue. “Bank officials did their duty. I accept. But it hurts,” said Mr. Prabakaran, a resident of Tanjavur district.
Mr. Prabakaran, who secured the 101 rank in the UPSC civil services examination, has been facing financial problems for many years, but never missed an opportunity to invest in books in pursuit of his goals.
He completed Plus Two in 2004, worked as manual labourer, saved for his education, took care of his family, even borrowed money and managed to pursue higher education. Those who lent him money thought that it was impossible for him to overcome his problems. But he was steadfast and confident of improving his situation against all odds.
At the age of 29, he cleared the Civil Services Examination, and is all set to join the Indian Administrative Service.
His is a tale of perseverance, determination and hard work. During his visits to the bank, he says, security personnel used to prevent him from even talking to the bank manager, as he used to request him for more time to repay the loan.
“After a gap of four years, I joined civil engineering in 2008. I had to take an education loan of Rs. 76,000 from the Peravurani Branch of a leading public sector bank. The bank repeatedly asked me to repay the loan even after I assured them that I will do so once I get a job. The officials’ behaviour was rude,” said Mr. Prabakaran.
Invested in books
“I used to buy books of foreign authors for my education in IIT Madras. I never purchased shirts for me. I received a stipend of Rs. 8,000 from the Ministry of HRD. But it was not sufficient to meet my expenses on education. So I borrowed from my friends. At one point, I had to repay Rs. 2.5 lakh to my friends. It was scary. But I remained determined,” said Mr. Prabakaran.
The pressure exerted by bank officials to repay the loan was so high that his parents, who were not educated, borrowed money and repaid a portion of the amount. But bank officials demanded the rest.
“I got a good score in GATE. So, I got job in PSUs. But I did not join as I wanted to serve the country as a good IAS officer. I spoke to the bank, assuring that I will repay the money after August,” said Mr.Prabakaran.
But the bank held the Rs. 10,000 in his account under lien, which he had borrowed from his friend to meet the expenses to attend the Civil Services interview. The bank had apparently used his Aadhaar to trace his other bank account. “They had earlier forced me to take an Aadhaar card,” he said. He has repaid Rs. 75,000 of the loan amount.
Mr. Prabakaran has also been guiding other aspirants in his village to clear competitive examinations.
Bank officials in the Local Head Office in Chennai said the student should have informed the bank officials in writing about his higher studies within the moratorium period of one year.
“The repayment would not have started had the student informed the officials properly. After three months, the loan will become NPA,” said the official.
