The woman’s husband alleged that even after repeated calls, no ambulance or emergency service came to their rescue. That is when the family had to take a boat and venture out looking for medical assistance. However, the woman delivered the baby in the boat before medical help arrived. Local administration took cognizance of the matter eventually and sent medical help. Thankfully the mother and the child are doing fine.
