Coming across a case where a retired court staff of Thanjavur district had misappropriated more than ₹1.5 crore of Motor Accident Claims compensation to be disbursed, the Madurai Bench of the Madras High Court directed the inquiry proceedings against him to be conducted on a day to day basis.
A Division Bench of Justices S. Vaidyanathan and G. Jayachandran dismissed the petition filed by Thinagaraja, a retired court staff at the Thanjavur court. He sought the quash of the notice issued by the Principal District Judge, Thanjavur. The PDJ had sought a written statement from the petitioner. The court imposed a cost of ₹5,000 on the petitioner.

Under the NBS, newborns are screened for communication disorders before they are discharged from the hospital. For this, AIISH has collaborated with several hospitals to conduct screening which is performed to detect hearing impairment and other developmental disabilities that can affect speech and language development. The screening has been helping in early intervention for those identified with the disorders, as any delay in the identification poses risk and affects successful management of children with hearing loss, according to AIISH.
