As her condition worsened, she underwent surgery at a medical college, where two operations were performed, the officer added.

Sharma further alleged that the pain was due to a cotton bundle left inside her abdomen due to Dr. Jain’s negligence, Station House Officer (SHO) Subodh Kumar Saxena said.

The complainant claimed that after receiving no response from authorities, including the Chief Medical Officer (CMO), she moved the court, the SHO said.

He said, “The case was registered on Friday following a court order of Assistant Chief Judicial Magistrate Prachi Aggarwal on the complaint by Rajni Sharma.” Meanwhile, Jain has denied all allegations, saying, “There is nothing like that. This is just a way to take money from the doctor.” When questioned about the alleged monetary demands from the woman, she told PTI that she was not aware of the specifics.

Meerut Chief Medical Officer Dr Ashok Kataria said that he was unaware of any complaint filed by Sharma at his office.

Police have initiated an investigation into the matter.
