C-section surgeries back in Niloufer, experts take lead

HYDERABAD: After a gap of 40-days, caesarean surgeries were resumed at Niloufer Hospital which ran into a controversy last month. The C-Section surgeries were stopped after five women who underwent the surgeries suffered from heavy bleeding and died eventually from January 28 to February 4.

Caesarean surgeries were stopped soon after the deaths were reported in media and all patients approaching to Niloufer Hospital were directed to Modern Government Maternity Hospital at Petlaburz.

Family members of deceased seek reason

While the medical services



are limping back to normalcy at Niloufer Hospital, family members of the five deceased women are still waiting to know reasons which lead to death of their dear ones.

The family members hoped that they could know the reasons on February 27 when hearing on the case was scheduled at State Human Rights Commission. However, the commission said that the next hearing will be on March 30. "No one told us the reason for death of my daughter-in-law Busra Begum," said Busra's mother-in-law Akhtar Unnisa. Busra was one among the five deceased women.
