Woman gives birth outside health centre in Madhya Pradesh

A woman delivered in a cycle- rickshaw outside a district hospital here on Thursday due to non-availability of the ambulance.

Jay Prakash, a doctor of the hospital, said: "Due to some misunderstanding, we could not admit the woman. Later, our entire medical staff helped her."
