New Delhi: Displaying sheer negligence, a government hospital in Jaipur refused admission to a pregnant woman in labour, saying that she wasn't ready to give birth.

Screaming in pain, the woman begged for help and ultimately gave birth to her baby on the road outside the hospital at 11:00 pm.

The incident took place in Jaipuriya Hospital in the late hours of Friday after the lady was brought in at 10:00 pm while experiencing severe labour pain.

As per reports, the doctors on duty allegedly refused to admit her citing that it was not yet time for the baby to be born, and asked her to come back the following morning.

The same was testified by Rekha Singh, Superintendent of the hospital, who was present at the time of the incident.

"The woman was in severe pain. The doctors, without even checking properly, asked her to come on the next day and forced her to leave. As she was leaving the premises, she gave birth on the road right outside the hospital, in the presence of several others. Later, the police was informed and an ambulance was arranged for her," he said.
