In a shameful incident, a man was forced to carry his 7-year-old daughter on his shoulder after government hospital allegedly denied to provide ambulance. 

The heart-wrenching incident took place in Chhattisgarh's Surguja on Saturday.


The now-deceased girl was hospitalised after she complained of severe stomach and a high fever. 

According to the hospital officials, the family was in a state of shock after the sudden demise of their daughter and therefore couldn't understand that the ambulance was to reach them at the earliest.

Later, Chhattisgarh Health Minister TS Singh Deo ordered a probe into the matter.

"Concerned health official from Lakhanpur should have made the father understand to wait for hearse instead of letting him go. I have ordered the Chief Medical and Health Officer (CMHO) to investigate the issue," said Deo.

State Health Minister further said that Block Medical Officer(BMO) would be replaced in case of negligence in the matter.
