Two Women Develop Kidney Complications After C-Sections at Kota Hospital, One DiesPreviousNext

Two women, Reshma and Anita, developed serious kidney complications following Caesarean deliveries at Kota's New Medical College Hospital, with Reshma dying after treatment and Anita currently in ICU. These incidents follow a similar tragedy six months earlier when five women died from kidney issues post-delivery at the same hospital. Families have alleged medical negligence, while hospital officials deny links between the cases, citing patients' critical conditions and ongoing investigations into the causes.
