“But we could not do it as the baby’s weight was more and we had to perform a C-section,” said the Superintendent.
Gynaecologists Sridevi, Lavanya, Sandhyarani and Vidya performed the surgery. The superintendent said the baby weighed 3.4 kg with both the mother and child doing fine.
The IAS couple became role models for the people of the district through their act, showing that there was no need to go to private hospitals for deliveries.
Ever since he took charge as the District Collector, Bhavesh Mishra has been working continuously for the improvement of the facilities and services at the area hospital for the benefit of the poor people.
A 2017 batch IAS officer from Lucknow, Ila Tripathi earlier worked as the Additional Collector (Local Bodies), Mancherial. An IT engineer before joining civil services, Tripathi is also the author of a few books and a mentor for civil service aspirants.
