The emergency section of the hospital refused to admit 12-year-old Ansh and asked his father, Sunil Kumar, to take him to a children's hospital.

Further, Kumar was not even provided a stretcher to carry his son to the children's hospital, which is 250 meters away from LLR.

What Happened

According to reports, Kumar had to wait for at least half an hour before the staff at LLR hospital denied admitting his son. After half an hour, they asked Kumar to take his son to a children's hospital.

Kumar then rushed to the children's hospital, carrying Ansh on his shoulders. But sadly, he was too late.

The doctors at the children's hospital declared Ansh dead on arrival.

Even then, no body came for help. The poor father had to again carry his now dead son on his shoulders all the way back.

Ansh was down with high fever since Sunday and was first taken to a neighbourhood doctor in Faizalgunj. The doctors there asked Kumar to take his son to a hospital with better facilities. It was then that Kumar went to the LLR hospital in Kanpur.

Series of Such Shocking Tragedies

This incident comes merely days after a video showing a tribal man in Odisha, carrying his dead wife on his shoulders, went viral. It was reported that the authorities did not help him and he was compelled to walk 10 km carrying his dead wife.

In another incident, a woman's body had to be broken at the hip so that men could carry it on a bamboo pole.

it is Every bodies fault... Y cant every individual be active in helping others ... We know our govt is developing only in cheddi controlled media... Lets work together and inform all our friends to help people who are poor and in situation of needy...

May Almighty forgive us for living the poor on their own... Those who are capable of helping . please help without depending on the Govt's system cos we feel most of the authorities are just filling their stomachs when they should have been taking care of their people.

Additional Superintendent of Police Vinod Kumar Pandey, who is heading a Special Investigation Team in the case, said the charge sheet was submitted on Wednesday.

The 23-year-old Unnao rape victim, who was airlifted to Delhi and admitted to Safdarjung Hospital with 90 per cent burns after being set on fire, died following a cardiac arrest on December 6, 2019.

The woman was set afire by five men, including two of her alleged rapists, on December 5 morning when she was going to Rae Bareli to attend a court hearing in the rape case filed by her.

In her statement to Sub Divisional Magistrate Dayashankar Pathak, the woman had said she was attacked when she reached Gaura turn near her home on her way to the court.

She had specifically named Harishankar Trivedi, Ram Kishore Trivedi, Umesh Bajpai, Shivam Trivedi and Shubham Trivedi as the persons who set her on fire.

The woman had also alleged that Shivam and Shubham Trivedi had abducted and raped her in December 2018.

Amaravati, Jul 31: Nine people have died after allegedly consuming sanitiser in Prakasam district of Andhra Pradesh today, the police said.

Prakasam district Superintendent of Police Siddharth Kaushal said the people had been consuming sanitiser for the past few days, mixing it with water and soft drinks.

"We are also investigating whether they laced the sanitiser with any other toxic substances," the official said.

"Their family members say these people have been consuming sanitiser for the past ten days. We are sending the sanitiser stocks, being sold in the area, for examination," he added.

Kurichedu in Prakasam district has been under lockdown due to rise in coronavirus cases and hence, liquor shops have also been shut since the past few days.

Habitual drinkers were said to be consuming sanitisers that have alcohol content, apart from illicitly distilled arrack.

The police said two beggars near a temple were the first to fall victim on Thursday night. While one of them was found dead at the spot, another died in the government hospital in Darsi town, they said.

A third person was also taken to the Darsi hospital late on Thursday night after he fell unconscious but he was declared brought dead. Six others who fell ill after allegedly consuming sanitiser, died this morning.

Others who fell ill after consuming sanitiser are undergoing treatment at their residences in the village, the police added.
