Family members protested outside a private hospital in Mancherial, alleging medical negligence after a woman delivered a stillborn baby. Doctors denied the charge, saying the foetus died due to cardiology-related complications and that the delivery was handled professionally.
The pregnant woman, Kummari Padma of Kagaznagar town, was admitted to the hospital after she experienced labour pains around 2.30 pm. She later delivered a stillborn baby weighing about 3 kg. Padma and her family members accused the doctors, particularly the gynaecologist, of negligence in handling the delivery and held them responsible for the death of the fetus.
