Ram temple consecration ceremony: Karnataka hospital announces free delivery of newborns
Vijayapura: A private hospital in Karnataka's Vijayapura district has announced free delivery of newborns at its facility from January 18 to January 22 to celebrate the Ram temple consecration ceremony in Ayodhya on Monday.
The decision was announced by the 'Shri Siddeshwar Loka Kalyana Charitable Trust', which runs the JSS Super Speciality Hospital in Vijayapura.
"Starting from today, delivery of all the new born babies at our hospital will be done for free till January 22 to celebrate 'Ram Mandir Pran Pratishtha' which will be held this Monday in Ayodhya.
It's a huge occasion and we wanted to contribute in a significant way. So we decided that all deliveries happening at our hospital for the specified period of five days will be done free of cost," an official of the hospital told PTI.
"Today, so far, we have done seven deliveries free of cost", he said. Vijayapura MLA Basanagouda Patil Yatnal hailed the initiative as "Ayodhya Celebration".
"If a delivery takes place at JSS hospital from January 18, 2024 to January 22, 2024, then the male child born at the hospital will be considered as a form of Rama and the new born female child will be considered as a form of Sita. The delivery will be done free of cost. Jai Shri Ram," the former Union Minister said on 'X'.
Medical Dialogues team had earlier reported that an emergency kit for heart patients, developed by Kanpur's Laxmipat Singhania Institute of Cardiology and Cardiac Surgery, has been named 'Ram kit'. The kit that comes with a photograph of Lord Ram follows the concept of ‘We Treat, He Cures’. It also has vital drugs and a helpline number of hospitals. Authorities of the Cantonment Hospital in Prayagraj district will be distributing the ‘Ram kit’ among 5,000 families in the city, becoming the first hospital in the state to do so.
