An incident has taken place in Purnia that shocks human sensibilities, in which a newborn died due to a careless nurse. The case is of GMCH, Purnia, where the nurse posted in the labor room left the newborn on the table for 25 minutes after not getting Rs 2000 in the bag. Since the family did not have Rs 2,000, they gave Rs 100 to the nurse, but by that time the condition of the newborn had deteriorated. The family members immediately took the newborn to the doctor, where the doctors declared the newborn dead. After this the family members started creating ruckus. The Superintendent of Purnia GMCH has constituted a committee to investigate the matter. The family members have given a written application to the Superintendent of Purnia GMCH demanding action in this regard.
