Barwani (Madhya Pradesh) [India], May 15 : A migrant labourer delivered a baby on Thursday in Barwani SDM Anshu Javla's car.
"We had gone to screen workers, who came from Gujarat, when a woman started experiencing labour pain. We were just at the hospital gate, when she delivered the baby boy in car," said Dr Kishore Mukati, who was a part of the medical team .
The woman belongs to Sustikheda village in Barwani.
This comes after Shakuntala, a migrant worker who was walking back to her village in Madhya Pradesh, gave birth to a baby on the roadside, on Tuesday.
She was travelling on foot from Nashik in Maharashtra to Satna in Madhya Pradesh due to the nationwide lockdown imposed as a precautionary measure to contain the spread of COVID-19.
