Wayanad: In what seems to be a repeat of negligence from the hospital authorities, an Adivasi woman gave birth to a child in an ambulance.

The woman, who was turned away from Wayanad district hospital for absence of gynecologist, delivered the baby in Vythri on her way to Kozhikode.

The mother and the child are now admitted in Kalpatta Taluk hospital.
