💨 Abstract

Maharashtra CM Devendra Fadnavis announced the drafting of a Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) to prevent incidents like the one at Pune's Deenanath Mangeshkar Hospital, where a pregnant woman died after being allegedly refused admission due to a Rs 10 lakh deposit. The hospital has since stopped asking for deposits from patients at the emergency department.
