Firoze Mohiddin Sayyed was ecstatic when his wife delivered a baby girl in May. The arrival of his first child prompted celebrations in his household. But the jubilation soon turned into frustration for the Mankhurd resident after the BMC hospital where his wife underwent a C-section said it had no record of the delivery. Following his complaint to the ward office, the hospital has now launched a probe into the lapse.
Sayyed, who lives at New MHADA PMGP Colony, said his wife Muzammila visited the BMC-run Pt. Madan Mohan Malviya Shatabdi Hospital at Govandi for check-ups throughout her pregnancy. She went into labour on May 30 and doctors at the hospital delivered a baby girl through C-section the same day. She was discharged on June 3.
