[Speaker 1] I have been writing prescription since 2014, online. Basically, I use a software, an app, or whatever, word document. I have the record since 2014. Is that acceptable in the court of law?
[Speaker 2] Great. Now, because of new Bharatiya Suraksha Sanhita, Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita and now Bharatiya Sakshya Sanhita, they have accepted this as electronic document as an evidence. So, now if you ask me about email, that become evidence. Video consulting, that become evidence. Audio, definitely will get evidence. So, now electronic documents has been considered as evidence under the law. Secondly, if you see the NMC act, which has been very recently has been already executed by the parliament and in picture now, it talks about digitalization of every record. Ethics and ethics regulation has been 2023 has been suspended for time being, but that also talked that within three years, doctor should become a digitalized. Digitalized means that is the document which is going to remain for longer. So, any electronic document are going to be accepted in court of law as a evidence. But whenever there's a question of physical signature, today also we say a physical signature has got a role to play and that need to be there as a hard copy with you.
