A goof-up by a nurse, who handed over the baby to the wrong family at a hospital in Madhya Pradesh's Bhopal district has led to confusion between parents of two newborns. The conflict between two couples laying claim over a newborn male child will now be resolved through a DNA test based on the recommendation of an inquiry committee.

According to the authorities of Government Jai Prakash district hospital, a woman delivered a male child at 10.35 am on Thursday through caesarean, while another woman, who was to undergo caesarean (on another table in the same operation theatre) gave birth to a female child at 10.53 am, reports Hindustan Times.
