The child’s body was buried by the family members. After the officials came to know about this matter, the postmortem will be conducted on Saturday. Shadol District Collector Vandana Vaidh said, “Women and child development officials went to the hospital. This shocking incident took place less than 15 days ago. They found that the baby’s condition had deteriorated due to lack of treatment for pneumonia.”
The Collector said that the local Anganwadi worker had requested the mother not to give the child a fortune with blind faith. Meanwhile, in most parts of tribal-dominated Madhya Pradesh, iron-rod shooting for pneumonia is common. Yuvajana Congress president, Dr Vikrant Bhuria, said, “Putting warts with sticks can lead to death. It is a way of reducing pain. But the problem is that it causes death rather than reducing infection.”
Madhya Pradesh BJP Spokesperson Dr. Hitesh Vajpayee said, “Such inhumane treatments are still prevalent. Medical officers should respond and take strict action.”
