Pregnant woman denied bed, made to wait for 4 hours; loses baby

The victim identified as Sameena was taken to a government hospital when she suffered labour pain. The woman was accompanied by her husband and two other women relatives. 

According to Times Now report, in the video that has gone viral, the woman is seen lying on the hospital floor and tossing around in pain. Even after she was made to wait for hours, she was neither attended to by any doctor nor admitted to the hospital. Finally, the woman was taken to a private hospital for delivery. However, her child did not survive.

Sameena's relatives have also demanded strict action against hospital authorities as well as the district health officer. 

Times Now further reports that, due to extreme medical negligence by the doctors at the hospital, the woman lost her baby and almost escaped death. The woman's husband was forced to take her to another private hospital after no medical staff came out to attend to her. The doctors at the private hospital said they managed to save the life of the woman, but could not save the baby.

Media reports further state that, after the video had gone viral, the health authorities have suspended Dr Shivakumar, the surgeon on call. Later, Kolar BJP MP Muniswamy visited the private hospital to inquire about Sameena’s health.
