The doctors, however, attributed the death of the foetus in the womb to cardiology-related complications. They maintained that the delivery was handled carefully and in a professional manner, reports Telangana Today.
The incident has once again drawn attention to concerns over accountability and transparency in private healthcare facilities, especially in cases involving maternal and foetal health.
