On Monday due to the death of a 32-year-old pregnant woman, allegedly because of medical negligence, sparked violent protests at Veerangana Jhalkari Bai Hospital prompting the health department to order an inquiry on Tuesday.

Family members tried to stop traffic at Hazratganj crossing and lodged a police complaint stating that the hospital gave deceased Sunita Kumari "contaminated" oxygen that caused organ failure.

Although FIR is to be lodged, a four-member committee of three doctors of the hospital and one nominated by chief medical officer has been formed to investigate.

The hospitals chief medical superintendent Sudha Singh said that on Monday, Sunita of Sitapur Road was brought to emergency ward in an advanced stage of pregnancy. She was anemic and had developed complications after delivering a baby boy. She had lost a lot of blood and couldnt be saved in spite of timely transfusion.
