Allegations of medical negligence have surfaced at Government Daga Hospital in Nagpur after a woman lost her baby following a prolonged wait for delivery.
According to the woman's husband, Deeplata Banote was made to wait for nearly nine hours after being admitted with labour pain before being taken for delivery.
Surendra Banote alleged that during the procedure, a female attendant applied pressure by sitting on the woman's chest and using her knees in an attempt to assist childbirth.
Despite reports indicating that the pregnancy had been normal, the baby was stillborn, the family said.
