In response to allegations of medical negligence leading to the demise of a 40-year-old woman and her newborn child, the Lok Bandhu Hospital in Lucknow has established a five-member committee to conduct a thorough investigation.

Aarti Sharma, a 40-year-old resident of Sarojini Nagar, was admitted to Lok Bandhu Hospital on November 24 due to labor pain. Tragically, during the delivery process, the newborn, weighing five and a half kilograms—approximately one and a half kilograms above the normal range—did not survive.

According to the grieving family, Aarti was initially slated for a Cesarean section, but allegedly, due to pressure from the in-laws, doctors opted for a normal delivery, resulting in the tragic loss of both the mother and the infant.

Kuldeep, Aarti’s brother, expressed concerns over the decision-making process, emphasizing that the medical team’s deviation from the planned C-section ultimately led to the devastating outcome.
