In a distressing incident from Jharkhand, a father was seen carrying the body of his deceased infant in a cardboard box after a local hospital allegedly refused to provide an ambulance.

According to reports, the man had approached the hospital for assistance but was met with claims from hospital authorities that no ambulance request had been made by him or his family. This incident highlights ongoing issues within India’s healthcare infrastructure, particularly in rural areas where access to medical services can be limited.
