Dr Yasir Sulaiman of Amala Hospital stated, "The initiation of labour pain had already begun. At that point, it was impossible for us to shift her to the emergency department. We had to take out the child and cut the umbilical cord there itself. We ensured that the baby and the mother were safe. Currently, both are doing well. It was a different day and a new thing for us", news agency ANI reported.

Following the successful delivery, the mother and her baby girl were transferred to the hospital for further care. Hospital officials have confirmed that both mother and child are in good health and are not facing any complications.
