Staff of ‘108’ ambulance assist in delivery at Nizamabad station
A 20-year-old woman from Secunderabad delivered a baby boy inside a train with the help of ‘108’ ambulance staff on Sunday evening. The train was heading from Secunderabad to Mumbai, and had to be stopped at the Nizamabad station when the woman developed labour pains.
“We received a call at around 4 p.m. and reached the railway station in seven minutes. But the delivery was already under process. We helped in delivering the baby. Soon after that, the train started to move. I pulled the chain, shifted the mother and the newborn to the Government General Hospital in the district,” said M. Anand, medical technician of the 108 ambulance.
Condition of the mother and the baby was stable when they were admitted at the hospital.
