UNI Oct 17, 2019
A couple of days after a pregnant woman was sent to Lucknow, instead of being treated at Gonda's District Women's Hospital, the Uttar Pradesh Women's Commission has ordered an investigation into the matter.
Commission's Vice Chairperson on 16th October said as per the complaint, the fetus had died inside the womb of Yashoda, who had come from Balrampur's Shridutt Ganj. The woman had been transferred from Balrampur to Gonda Women's Hospital but the doctors, instead of treating her, sent her to the Lucknow Medical College. A complaint, that the woman was lying on the floor during that time, has also been received. The directions to investigate the case have been given to Chief Medical Superintendent AP Mishra. He said those officials or staff which paid negligence in providing treatment will be punished.
