30 children die in 48 hours in a UP Medical College Hospital after oxygen supply disrupted; magisterial probe ordered
Gorakhpur, 12th Aug: In a shocking incident on Friday, 30 children in Uttar Pradesh’s Gorakhpur district died in a span of 48 hours at Baba Raghav Das Medical College. The district administration, however, refuted the claims. Initial media reports claimed that a disruption in oxygen supply led to the death of the children, however, the state government, as well as the district administration, have denied those reports. A magisterial probe has been ordered to investigate the real cause that led to deaths of the children.
According to Hindustan Times, the oxygen supply at the medical college was allegedly stopped after the suppliers’ bill of Rs 67 lakh was not cleared. The medical college hospital is the only largest in the Gorakhpur region and also situated in Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath’s former parliamentary constituency.
