Thirty-one patients died at the state-run Shankarrao Chavan Government Hospital in Maharashtra's Nanded that made national headlines on Monday following 24 deaths in 24 hours.
Outside the hospital in Maharashtra's Nanded where 31 patients, including 16 newborns, have died in 48 hours, families recount horrific details of neglect by the nursing staff.
The father of a two-year-old with a chronic heart problem has been moping the floor under his daughter's hospital bed. He narrated details of an allegedly irresponsible hospital staff and the shortage of medicines.
"My two-year-old daughter is here for nearly a week now," he told NDTV. She is suffering from a cardiac condition that requires a surgery. However, the girl is also suffering from pneumonia and the family came to this hospital to get her treated before they can go to Mumbai for the surgery.
