A woman from a remote village near the Line of Control (LoC) gave birth to a girl in an Army ambulance while on way to a hospital in Rajouri, a defence spokesman said today.
An Army camp on the LoC was approached by the locals of a remote village for the medical assistance last night after the condition of a woman suffering from labour pain deteriorated, the spokesman said.
He said that an Army doctor with his medical team rushed to the house of the woman.
Seeing her critical state, the medical team decided to take her to a hospital at Rajouri immediately, the spokesman said, adding the woman delivered the girl child in the ambulance.
Both the woman and her new born were safe, he said.
