An accident victim died for want of adequate medical aid because the doctor at the Bilsi Community Health Centre (CHC) was busy talking on phone and then arguing with the sub-inspector who had brought the victim there. The incident took place on Monday but its video went viral later. Badaun SSP Sankalp Sharma said that he had raised the matter with District Magistrate Kumar Prashant who said that further action would be taken after studying the autopsy report.

The SSP said, "If the death is due to negligence, appropriate action will be taken against those responsible." The video footage shows the doctor arguing with the cop instead of attending to the injured woman. Sub-inspector Sushil Panwar from the Ughaiti police station, who drove the woman to the CHC, said that he got into an argument with the doctor after he continued to talk on phone instead of attending to the patient despite requests.
