The ambulance stuck in traffic
An ambulance carrying a three-day-old premature baby, whose twin had died a few hours earlier at a private hospital in Nalasopara, faced a harrowing ordeal on Tuesday. Stuck in a traffic jam between Nalasopara and Dahisar while en route to Wadia hospital in Mumbai, the baby’s panicked relatives and parents had to clear boulders and regulate traffic themselves to make way for the ambulance.
Rakesh Singh, the baby’s father, recounted the ordeal, expressing concern over the lack of health infrastructure in Vasai taluka, which forced him to seek treatment in Mumbai. “My twins were born prematurely on February 24 evening. One of them could not survive, and we were advised to go to Wadia hospital in Mumbai,” he said.
