Baby dies due to genital injury during C-section; family protests in Davanagere


Davanagere, July 5 (IANS): A baby, whose genital allegedly got cut during the caesarean delivery in Karnataka's Davanagere district, succumbed to his injuries on Friday, after which the family staged a protest demanding action against the erring doctor.

The relatives of the baby staged a protest outside Chigateri District Hospital, demanding accountability and action against the doctor.

On June 17, Amrutha was admitted to the district hospital for delivery. As Amrutha could not have a normal delivery, the doctor decided to perform a C-section surgery.

The baby's parents Arjun and Amrutha alleged that doctor Nijamuddin while performing the surgery and taking out the newborn allegedly cut the baby's private part.

The baby's parents alleged that their baby died due to medical negligence.

After the newborn's condition deteriorated, the baby was rushed to a private hospital where he succumbed to his injuries.

Details are awaited.

    doctors like these should not be allowed to practice. The baby’s genitals were cut during a Caesarean delivery due to the doctor's carelessness. such doctors’ licenses should be canceled, and they should be permanently confined to their homes. The parents of the child should claim full compensation from this negligent doctor.”

    Baby's genitalia allegedly cut. Its not confirmed by any reliable source. Its better not come to conclusion without knowing the facts. Baby's genital injury unlikely to cause the mortality. Let them investigate.
