BANKA, BIHAR: A 25-year-old unmarried woman who cannot hear or speak was reportedly sterilised in Bihar's Banka district and a probe has been ordered into it.
According to local media reports, villagers of Barkathan had complained that the woman was sterilised at a referral hospital at Baunsi in Bihar's Banka district on Friday last.
The media reports suggested that an ASHA worker facilitated the sterlisation on the request of her parents who were worried as anti-socials have taken advantage of her in the past.
