Pregnant tribal woman in Kerala carried for 3.5 km in 'doli' | Watch

India Today  

A pregnant tribal woman in Kerala was carried by her relatives on a makeshift stretcher/doli for three-and-a-half kilometres since the road to her village was damaged and the ambulance could not reach her. However, at midnight, she started showing symptoms of giving birth and called for an ambulance from Kottathara Tribal Speciality Hospital to her Tribal village of Kadukumanna. So, Sumathi’s relatives jumped into action and built a temporary stretcher/doli, put her on it, and walked three-and-a-half kilometres through the forest to reach the main road where the ambulance was supposed to arrive. The ambulance, which arrived later, took the pregnant tribal woman to the hospital.
