Jagtial: A pregnant woman, Armori Latha, was taken across a flooded road with the help of an excavator to reach hospital near Ramalingapet of Meddipalli mandal on Thursday.
When Latha developed labour pains, family members tried to shift her to hospital in Korutla. However, they could not cross the road as flood water from the Thathammavagu was flowing across the road between Ramalingapet-Bheemaram.

The family members then approached the village sarpanch Gajoji Chary, who along with SI Chiranjeevi rushed to the spot and helped Latha cross the inundated road by arranging an excavator.
Later, she was shifted to Korutla hospital in a ‘108’ service ambulance which was kept ready on the other side of the road.
Latha’s relatives as well as villagers praised the sarpanch and SI for their initiative.
