In a heartbreaking incident, a pregnant woman who had to be transported on a utensil to cross the swollen Chintawagu River with the help of her family in the Gorla de Bijapur in Chhatisgarh to reach the hospital that was 15 km away, gave birth to a dead child.
The incident occurred last week and the family had to take this step in the absence of a road / bridge. They have alleged medical malpractice.
The woman, Lakshmi Yalam, was admitted to the Bhopalpatnam Community Health Center.
Block Medical Officer (BMO), Bhopalpattnam, Ajay Ramteke has claimed that a notice has been issued to the doctor and nurse and a letter will be sent to senior officials for action.
"We have issued a notice to the doctor and nurse. We will send a letter to senior officials for further action, after the doctor and nurse submit a response to the notices," Ramteke said.
