SALEM, JUNE 27, 2019 00:00 IST
Confusion prevailed at the Government Mohan Kumaramangalam Medical College and Hospital on Wednesday when a hospital staff informed a man that his wife had been delivered of a male baby and later a doctor informed him that it was a female baby.
Venkatesh of Kadayampatti, and his wife Gomathi, already have a girl child. Gomathi was admitted to the hospital on Tuesday for delivery. Doctors said a Caesarian section would be performed and obtained permission from Venkatesh. Gomathi was taken to the operation theatre, and later a staff told Venkatesh that a baby boy was born to the couple. But, while obtaining his signature for a family planning operation on Gomathi, doctors told Venkatesh that a female baby was born.
As confusion prevailed, Venkatesh and relatives alleged that doctors had changed the baby and entered into altercation with them. Doctors clarified that the staff had given wrong information to them. They said that only one baby was born in the hospital on Wednesday, and it was the baby girl of Venkatesh and Gomathi. The doctors sought their apology and pacified Venkatesh and his relatives.
