Four Medical Staff Found Negligent After Tribal Woman Delivers Roadside in Uttar Pradesh
In Bhadohi, Uttar Pradesh, four doctors and a nurse were found guilty of serious negligence after a pregnant woman, Rani Vanvasi, was denied admission to a district hospital and delivered on the roadside. The inquiry, ordered by the District Magistrate, cited refusal to admit her due to anemia and failure to arrange blood despite her brother's willingness to donate. The hospital's labour room was reportedly locked, and officials handled the case remotely. Disciplinary actions include salary withholding, removal, and transfer of staff involved.
