Imphal, August 12 2020:
The All Manipur Nupi Marup (AMNM) has urged the State Government to take appropriate actions against hospitals which 'denied' treatments to a few expectant mothers, resulting in their deaths, at the earliest.
A press release issued by AMNM also appealed to the State Government to provide compensations to victims who succumb due to medical negligence.
Saying that the purpose of hospitals is to save lives, the statement said that denying admission to patients who need emergency care is very 'inhumane'.
It also asked the State Government and department concerned to do the needful to ensure that childbirth service in hospitals is not interrupted.
Further demanding the State Government to inquire about the deaths of a few expectant mothers in the State recently, the lup said that hospitals which are found guilty should be booked accordingly.
