Balochistan: Pregnant woman dies due to lack of maternity care
QUETTA: The lack of maternity care and medical negligence lead to the death of another pregnant Baloch woman during pregnancy and labour pains in Alandur area of Turbat’s Buleda region of Balochistan’s district Kech on Thursday.
According to details, due to lack of medical facilities for the health services in Buleda the woman was brought to Turbat Hospital in critical condition where the doctors advised that she should be transferred to Karachi immediately.
The woman could not reach to Karachi and died on the way.
Two months ago another woman had also died in Buleda during her pregnancy because of the lack of antenatal and maternity care facilities.
It is pertinent to note that Tehsil Buleda in district Kech is the constituency of Zahoor Buledi the Provincial Minister for Finance and Information.
He had recently claimed that the ‘current government has been releasing handsome funds for health sectors’. However, local people continue to suffer and there has been no positive change in their lives.
