birth in train

The news drifted me once again into the world of reality from all that glamorous India Shinning talks.Expecting a baby brings unparrallel joy to one's life but giving birth to the baby in a running train can be a nightmare for any lady.I got dumbstruck when I read that a pregnent lady was turned down from a private hospital due to monetary reasons and she had to be rushed for a government hospital by a local train.It depicts our crumbling health infrastructure and how much a large section of our population is still dependent on subsidised government hospitals.
