Manjeshwar, Jul 6: In a tragic incident, a pregnant woman who had been admitted to the government hospital in Kumbala for her delivery, died on Sunday along with the unborn child.
Rahila was admitted to Kumbala government hospital for her delivery when she began experiencing labour pain on Saturday. However, the doctor informed her that she had not completed her pregnancy term and advised her to return home.
Experiencing recurring pain on Sunday morning, Rahila was admitted to the government hospital again. During this while, facing severe labour pain on the same afternoon, Rahila and her unborn child lost their lives.
Her family has lodged a case of medical negligence at Kumbala police station.
Not the first death
According to local sources, Rahila's death was not the first death at the Kumbala government hospital. Previously, there have been several instances of pregnant women dying at the hospital.
It is learnt that allegations have been made that no complaints had been lodged against the hospital and its management board due to its political connection, as per the locals.
