  My department head shared my medical report with my colleagues without my consent or knowledge. She is also prodding me to divulge deeply personal health information that is not connected to my job profile.
  What legal action can I take in this case against her?

  Department head of your company? How did she get access to your report? Medical Council of India prohibits disclosure of the patient’s medical condition without his/her permission but how serious court will take your case depends upon the medical condition he/she disclose

    I had applied for leave to take bed rest. I had shared my medical report with the department head, which included doctors advice for bed rest to substantiate my request for leave.

      Oh, what was the medical report about? Disclosing a medical report is not a crime so you might file a civil case for invasion of your privacy and the court will only take your case seriously if the information was too personal……

        You can’t do anything about it but if you still want to proceed with the civil case then I will give you contact of some lawyers though I don’t think your case would be strong and mostly probably, would’ve been ignored
