Watch: Pregnant woman carried on makeshift basket through river in Chhattisgarh

A pregnant woman was carried on a makeshift basket through a river in a village in Chhattisgarh.

In the video, four men were seen carrying the women seated in a basket.

The incident took place in Kadnai village of Surguja in Chhattisgarh.

Ambulance could not reach the village due to lack of proper road connectivity.

The woman was later taken to the nearby government hospital.

“It is not a matter of not having good health facilities.

There are a few remote villages where people find it difficult to commute during rainy days,” said Sanjay Kumar Jha, Collector, Surguja.

He added, “For such remote places, we are planning to use small cars to reach people.

It will not be possible to reach residences of the people via cars but we will strive to reach as near their residences as possible to help the people in need.” Watch the full video for more details.
