You may constitute a Medical Board comprising 3-4 doctors of the local area and direct the employee to present himself with all the medical records for assessment of his suitability. The Medical Board should be provided with a self-explanatory note including the medical history of the employee. Based on the medical opinion rendered by the Board, a decision regarding the case can be made and an appropriate order issued.
