Assam gynaecologist faces notice for performing 21 C

In violation of patient safety protocols and sterilisation norms, a senior gynaecologist at Morigaon Civil Hospital has been served a show-cause notice for allegedly performing 21 caesarean deliveries in just 10 hours. The Additional District Health Commissioner, while asking the doctor to submit a detailed report on each case within three days, stated that the doctor not only failed to follow patient-safety protocols but also did not maintain adequate records of the preoperative, postoperative, and sterilisation processes of each patient.
