Allahabad: An incident happened in Kaushambi shocked the entire nation when a man was forced to carry body of his niece on a bicycle after denied ambulance by a government hospital.
Hospital authorities ostensibly asked the bereaved uncle of Poonam, the minor girl who had died on Monday morning after a severe bout of diarrhea, to pay the fuel cost of the ambulance if he wanted to avail it to take the body home.

As the family was not in a position to afford the cost, Brij Mohan carried his dead niece on his shoulder and cycled all the way to their village, some 10km away. An FIR has been lodged against the doctor on duty and the ambulance driver after the appalling incident came to fore.
