Meerut: A shocking case of medical negligence has come to light, in which a female doctor in Meerut allegedly left a cotton bundle inside a woman’s abdomen after a C-section delivery. Following the incident, an FIR has been registered against her, the police reported on Saturday.
According to officials, the case was filed at the TP Nagar police station on Friday after Assistant Chief Magistrate Prachi Aggarwal issued a court order based on a complaint by the victim, Rajni Sharma. Sharma stated that she gave birth to a daughter at Sirohi Nursing Home on June 30, 2018, where Dr. Shikha Jain performed the surgery. Citing the complaint, a police officer mentioned that Sharma later experienced persistent abdominal pain. Despite multiple consultations, she was diagnosed with stomach ulcers.
As her condition worsened, she underwent surgery at a medical college, where two procedures were performed, the officer added. Sharma alleged that her pain was due to a cotton bundle left inside her abdomen because of Dr. Jain’s negligence, as per Station House Officer (SHO) Subodh Kumar Saxena. She further claimed that after failing to receive a response from the authorities, including the Chief Medical Officer (CMO), she approached the court, leading to the case being registered.
Meanwhile, Dr. Shikha Jain has denied all allegations, stating, “There is nothing like that. This is just an attempt to extort money from me.” When asked about Sharma’s alleged financial demands, she told PTI that she had no information.
Meerut’s Chief Medical Officer, Dr. Ashok Kataria, mentioned that no complaint from Sharma had been received at his office. The police have launched an investigation into the matter.
