Tribal pregnant woman treks for 2 kms to reach PHC in Adilabad

Exposing tacky connectivity of the region and resultant plight of public, a tribal pregnant woman was forced to trek for about 2 kilometers and then to cross a flooding stream by a bullock cart at Chittabatta hamlet in Gourapur in Indervelli mandal before reaching a primary health centre (PHC) in Utnoor mandal centre



on Friday.

The eight-month-pregnant woman, Pendra Sridevi trekked for 1.8 kilometers from Chittabatta hamlet to Gourapur village, from there she went to Dhanor (B) village by an auto-rickshaw.

She was then shifted to a birth-waiting room at PHC in Utnoor mandal centre.
